(10,000 seeds per ounce) 
Most any grower will find a spring crop of cut-flower Marigolds quite profitable. 
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.
