MARIGOLDS STAND THE SUMMER 
Nicholson’s Marigolds <u 
A. No flower-garden in the South is complete without Marigolds and no flower-family 
has been more improved in the last few years. Not only do these colorful blooms, that 
literally glisten in the sunshine, capture your attention and admiration but the neatly cut 
foliage on a symmetrical bush is equally attractive. 
On this page you will find new and old, and both dwarf and tall varieties with colors 
ranging from yellow, orange to brown to fit in almost any situation you may desire. Mari- 
golds are easy to grow, they prefer sun and rich soil—Sow seed in Spring. Plants will 
bloom profusely until late Fall. 
1732—MARIGOLD YELLOW SUPREME CAR- 
NATION FLOWERED. Visualize, if you can, a 
large, fluffy, well-rounded bloom of delicate 
mild honey fragrance, with broad, loose, frilled 
petals of a rich, creamy lemon-yellow color, 
and you have a fair conception of the ‘Yellow 
Supreme’’ Marigold. Holds decided freshness 
fully a week to 10 days. Plants are remarkably 
healthy, vigorous and free branching with foli- 
age which is practically free from that objec: 
tionable Marigold odor. Pkt., 10c; 3 pkts., 25c,

with a wide’ color range and do not have the 
customary Marigold odor. The compact plants
