With the possible exception of Petunias, it’s difficult to imagine a 
more versatile florist’s plant than today’s modern dwarf Marigold. 
From dainty single flowers to solid double balls of vivid color, in- 
cluding Anemone, Carnation and small Mum-flowered types, the 
choice is wide and varied. All are superb bedding plants—and 
what could be more valuable for combinations? Sow in February- 
March and flower them in 2-inch bands or regular flats.
