CROWN OF GOLD MARIGOLD 
are truly the amateur gar- 
dener’s best friend. They 
are both hardy and color- 
ful, which makes them ideal for all types of 
garden work. Blooms start early in July and 
continue until late fall. 
These showy annuals may be raised by sowing 
seed in the open garden as soon as the soil is 
warm, but a more certain method of procuring 
fine plants is to sow the seed in flats or hot beds 
about the first of March. 

Crown of Gold. Individual plants deviate very 
little from the average height of 24 inches. The 
lower branches are clustered near the ground 
level, while the higher branches are sub-oppo- 
site or alternate on the main stem. The plants 
are extremely floriferous, which gives to a plant 
in full bloom the appearance of a large orange 
top with a green base. Packet, 10c. 
Sunset Giant. The very largest Marigold yet 
developed, blooms reach a size of 5 inches in 
diameter. The definite sweet scent of the flowers 
adds to its value as a cut flower, as well as being 
a good garden plant. The plants are extremely 
robust, producing a heavy growth of foliage, 
with 6 to 8 heavy branches each bearing 3 to 6 
flowers. The plant grows trom 3% to 4 feet tall. 
Packet, 10c.

the French type, averaging 134 inches in diam- 
eter and do not have the strong Marigold odor.
