Large Flowering TALL MARIGOLDS 
BEST OF THE OLD AND 
In recent years there have been scores of tall, large flowering marigolds 
introduced by various hybridizers. Many have not remained true to type 
and are not so reliable as some of the older ones. 
Mammoth Mum 
All-America Honorable Mention 1944 
3408—We have often dreamed that 
someday we might grow those 
large yellow chrysanthemums seen 
in florists’ windows, and at football 
games in the autumn. What a 
pleasant.surprise, then, to find a 
MARIGOLD like them among 
the All-America’s. The flowers are 
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 early enough to produce 
a wealth of bloom before frost. 
You will just have to make room 
for this new beauty.

Golden Glow Marigold 
Odorless Foliage 
3409—The bright golden yellow 
flowers are over 2 inches across and 
borne in clusters of 5 to 8 on each 
stem. The plants are 2 to 214 feet 
tall. Odorless foliage. 
Pkt. 15c; Lg. Pkt. 25c; 14 Oz. 75c; 
Oz. $2.25. 

Mammoth Mum looks like a yellow Chrysanthemum. 
NEW INTRODUCTIONS 
From the many which we have tried out here at Moreton Farm we have 
selected the following as being outstanding. 
For all summer bloom, for long lasting cut flowers, for mass plantings 
of vivid color nothing can take the place of these large flowering marigolds.

African Type 
Sunset Giants 
3407—Mixed Colors. You've probably admired 
this recent introduction in the garden of a 
friend. Because of its broad, beautifully shaped 
petals and delicately sweet fragrance, it is an 
outstanding favorite. Colors range from lemon 
yellow to rich, golden orange. Since this is a 
new development there is an interesting varia- 
tion in the types and sizes of the flowers. 
Grows 3 to 4 feet tall.

One of the tallest (314-4 ft.), longest stemmed 
marigolds. The flowers are immense, round, 
tight-petalled balls. They are late flowering and 
should be started indoors for northern gardens.

Carnation Type 
Guinea Gold 
3427—A new earlier strain of that 
most satisfactory brilliant golden 
orange. The long stemmed flowers 
are large, with loose wide petals. 
This has been the most dependable 
tall marigold. 
Pkt. 15c; Lg. Pkt. 25c; 14 Oz. 55c; 
Oz. $1.75. 
Yellow Supreme 
3426— A medium tall bright yellow 
with huge fluffy flowers of the same 
beautiful type as Guinea Gold. 
The flowers do not have the usual 
intense marigold color. Early 
flowering and a splendid com- 
panion to sow with Guinea Gold. 
Pkt. 15c; Lg. Pkt. 25e; 44 Oz. 55e; 
Oz. $1.75. 
Supreme Mixture 
3424—Here is an exceptionally fine 
mixture we make by using equal 
amounts of Yellow Supreme and 
Guinea Gold. Lots of flowers with 
long stems. 
Pkt. 10c; Lg. Pkt. 20c; 14 Oz. 50c; 
Oz. $1.50. 
Odorless Burpee Gold 
3423—Of the same beautiful color 
and type as Guinea Gold, but with 
odorless foliage. Could well be 
called an “‘Odorless Guinea Gold.” 
Pkt. 10c; Lg. Pkt. 20c; 14 Oz. 50¢; 
Oz. $1.50. 

African Marigolds are all time favorites.
