MARIGOLD, AF 
Late in the season when many other growing things are 
past their prime, these plants supply an abundance of decora- 
tive blossoms. Their tones of orange and yellow blend well 
when the flowers are arranged loosely in bowls and vases. The 
bright green foliage is finely cut, and the stems are stout. Tall 
Marigolds give charm to the border, while the dwarfs are 
valuable for bedding and make ideal edging plants. We be- 
lieve we offer every desirable Marigold grown today.
