Calendulas— 
These improved calendulas are far su- 
perior to the’ old-fashioned varieties; 
flowers are larger, longer stemmed, 
more fully double and of richer col- 
ors. Those offered on this page, ex- 
cept where noted, are extra large- 
flowered and double to the very 
center. Calendulas are of easiest 
culture, succeeding in ordinary, 
well-drained soil. Where sum- 
mers are not too hot, plants will 
bloom from early summer until 
autumn and furnish an endless 
supply of long-lasting cut flow- 
ers. Sow seed in early spring 
and again in early summer to 
furnish blooms in the cool fall 
days. Plants grow 15 to 24 in. tall, 
depending on the variety.
