“og In recent years there have been scores of tall, 


large flowering marigolds introduced by various 
hybridizers. Many of them have not remained 
true to type and so are not so reliable as some of 
the older ones. From the many which were grown 
in our trial grounds this year we have selected the 
following because they are outstanding.

Mammoth Mum 
All-America Honorable Mention 1944 
3408—We have often dreamed that someday we 
might grow those large yellow chrysanthe- 
mums seen in florists’ windows, and at football 
games in the autumn. What a pleasant sur-

among the All America’s. The flowers we grew 
were 3 to 31% inches across on long, clean stems 
which make them ideal for cut flowers. The 
color is a soft yellow; the large, neat plants 
are very showy in the garden and they are a 2 4
