Marigolds 
Best way to grow Marigolds: Sow May 15th or when ground is sufh- 
ciently warmed. Then sow in a warm, sunny spot and cover seed very 
lightly. You can start in boxes indoors about April 20th. Tall varieties 
should be planted at least 15 to 18 inches apart each way. Low growing 
sorts take half. as much space. When plants are 4 to 6 inches in height 
cover the soil with Peat Moss. Keep mulch 1 inch deep over your Mari- 
gold bed all summer. You will have more Marigolds.
