Golden Glow Marigold 
GOLDEN GLOW MARIGOLD 
3409—(All-America Selection for 1939). Odorless 
foliage, and a distinct form of flower which is 
very well shown in the accompanying photo- 
graph. The bright golden yellow flowers were 
over 2 inches across and borne in clusters of 
5 to 8 on each stem. The plants 2 to 244 feet 
tall. We liked it.

many new Marigold introductions. It is one

LIMELIGHT

formity, and good stems for cutting.

EARLY SUNSHINE MARIGOLD 
3428—(Bronze Medal for 1939). A beautiful type 
of Chrysanthemum-like flower in bright 
lemon-yellow, and early enough for Northern 
gardens. The blooms are up to 2% inches in 
diameter and the plants 14% to 2 feet tall. It’s 
decidedly different from other Marigolds.

RED and GOLD HYBRIDS 
3413—The most brilliantly colored Marigolds in 
existence. Some of the large flowers are solidly 
colored bright mahogany-red while others vary 
from almost pure gold through every imagin- 
able combination of red, brown, and gold. As 
the season advances the reds become more 
intense. i 
The plants grow 18 to 24 inches tall and the 
flowers are 2 to 3 inches across. When thinning 
out seedlings, remember that those with dark 
stems have the reddest flowers.

NEW GOLDEN BEDDER 
1942 All-America Winner 
3425—Golden Bedder. According to our records 
this was one of the earliest Marigolds to bloom, 
and the plants were covered with large golden 
orange double flowers on good length stems, 
making a fine Marigold for cutting. See more 
complete description on page 52.

Harris’ Early Viking Marigold 
VIKING MARIGOLDS 
3403—Mixed Colors. We named this new Mari- 
gold “‘Viking” because of its extreme earliness. 
It was in full bloom ahead of any other equally 
tall Marigold. The plant is very branching and 
lavishly covered with good-sized double flowers 
fine for cutting.

pendable tall Marigold.
