Most any grower will find a spring crop of cut-flower Marigolds quite profit- 
able. A January or February sowing, spaced about 4x5 inches and grown 
single stem, will flower April and May. The All-Doubles and Carnation- 
Flowered types are most popular, but be sure and include some of the 
Chrysanthemum-flowered Mission Giants for their excellent novelty value. 
“FIVE BEST” FOR CUTTING 
@ Ball Giant Orange. Similar in type to All-Double Orange but somewhat larger flowered 
and of a more uniform deep, bright orange color. This, in our opinion, is the most 
profitable cut flower variety on the list. Tr. pkt., 35¢; %4 0z., 65¢; 1 oz., $2.00. 
@All-Double Orange. This belongs to the Fistulosa or large flowered, solid quilled- 
petal type. Produces nearly 100% double flowers, being preferred to Prince of 
Orange on this account. An excellent, long-stemmed cut flower strain. 
@All-Double Lemon. Identical to the above, but a clear lemon-yellow. 
@Gold Improved. The popular Carnation-flowered intense orange with odorless foliage. 
Excellent for greenhouse forcing. 
@ Yellow Supreme. Similar to Gold Improved but with flowers a rich creamy yellow. 
Odorless foliage.

above varieties balanced according to their commercial value.
