MARIGOLD 
For mid-winter cutting Marigolds are hard to beat. Free flower- 
ing with bright positive colors and growth that isn’t affected by 
dark mid-winter weather are strong points in their favor. 
WINTER FLOWERING. 9,000s. The following are “short day” 
varieties that flower only in the short days of winter. The sowing 
season is, therefore, limited in our latitude, beginning end of July 
to first part of December. Plant on bed 10 x 12 in., 25 ft. on end 
of bench is ample for most retail growers.

SCHIZANTHUS 
2-3000 seeds per tr. pkt. 
This is very much a cool temperature plant so doesn’t do well 
in the deep South. Schizanthus are valuable to a retail grower 
for cutting as well as for pot plants. To flower them during mid- 
winter, the roots must be restricted to either pots or shallow 
benches. An August 1 sowing, grown in 45-48 degrees will flower 
for Valentine’s Day.
