Large Howering 
TALL MARIGOLDS 
In recent years there have been scores of tall, large flowering mari- 
golds introduced by various hybridizers. Many have not remained true 
to type and are not so reliable as some of the older ones. 
From the many which we have tried out here at Moreton Farm we 
have selected the following as being outstanding. Plant them for cut 
flowers and garden display. 
Sunset Giant Marigolds range in color from 
creamy yellow to rich orange. 
AFRICAN TYPE 
Sunset Giants 
3407 —Mixed Colors. The largest of the new 
marigolds. Flowers have broad, fringed petals 
and interesting variations in size and form. Col- 
ors range from creamy yellow through deeper 
yellows to shades of orange; 3 to 4 feet tall; 
delightfully fragrant.

tight-petalled balls. Earlier bloom is obtained 
if the seed is started indoors.

BEST OF THE OLD AND 
CARNATION TYPE 
Guinea Gold 
3427—One of the most popular of the carna- 
tion flowered marigolds because of the abun- 
dance of brilliant orange, long stemmed, flow- 
ers. Blooms early.

large flowers of the same beautiful type as

beautifully with Guinea Gold and other types 
and colors of marigolds.

Odorless Mixture 
3425—This is an unusual mixture of large car- 
nation-flowered marigolds with odorless foliage. 
The mixture includes many shades of orange 
and yellow on plants ranging from 20 to 30 
inches high. The ideal cut flower variety.

are a soft orange shading to warm golden yel- 
low; not ‘‘hard’’ and ‘‘noisy’’ as are some mari- 
golds. Height 20’’—25’’.

“Tt seems as if I can’t let the opportunity go by 
to tell you what a thrill I got last summer out of 
raising annual Dahlias from your seed—Unwin 
Dwarf Hybrids Mixed. I had expected the plants 
would be rather dwarf, with single blossoms, but 
I had many large double ones, some four and more 
inches across and such a variety of colors.

NEW INTRODUCTIONS 
CHRYSANTHEMUM TYPE 
Mammoth Mum 
3408—Each year since its introduction, this 
large yellow marigold has been outstanding in 
our Trial Grounds. Tall growing, it produces 
large flowers resembling the chrysanthemums 
grown by florists. The soft yellow flowers are 3 
to 314 inches across on long, clean stems which 
make them ideal for cut flowers. The large, neat 
plants are very showy in the garden and they 
are early enough to produce a wealth of bloom 
before frost. 
Pkt. 15c; Lg. Pkt. 30c; 14 Oz. 95c.

Real Gold is between Guinea Gold and Yellow 
Supreme in color.
