MARIGOLD FLASH 
Flash — Especially noteworthy for the bright combination 
of colors suggested by the name. In most of the flowers a 
base color of tangerine is overlaid or marked with rich mari- 
gold red. In cool weather, this velvety-red predominates in 
the youngest flowers, while in hot weather the tangerine 
prevails. Combine deep, mahogany red with tangerine and 
you get — Flash. Individual flowers 134 inches and more 
across are produced in ten weeks from seed and the plants 
bloom profusely until frost. Strong, medium length stems 
recommend the flowers for cutting. 
Plants perfectly uniform and compact in habit of growth 
develop into bushy mounds averaging 18 inches in height 
and 24 to 30 inches in spread. Finely cut foliage has good 
color and quantity.
