‘Bur pee’s CALENDULAS —scortcn or pot VARicolaa 
These calendulas are far superior to the old-fashioned varieties in many respects; flowers are larger, longer 
stemmed, fuller and of richer colors. Those offered on this page are extra large-flowered and double to the very 
center, except where noted. Calendulas are of easiest culture, succeeding in ordinary, well-drained soil, and where 
summers are not too hot plants will bloom from early summer until frost and furnish an endless supply of long- 
lasting cut flowers. Sow seed in early spring. In hot sections, another sowing may be made in early summer to 
furnish blooms in the cool fall days. Plants grow 15 to 24 in. tall, depending on the variety and locality.
