MARIGOLD 
Dwarf French Single Brownie

create a color combination that has both luster and harmony. The 
crested centers are made up of hundreds of slender, glistening, golden 
yellow tube-like petals that seem to fairly burst from a rich mahogany- 
red disk of a single row of mildly serrated flat overlapping petals. 
The mahogany-red petals are edged with a thin line of gold further 
enhancing the warm color. Very free flowering blooms 2 inches in 
diameter, long flowering season. Excellent for beds and borders.

PANSY, Felix

fairly dwarf plants. Colors are rich and unusual—including purple, 
apricot and wine shades together with pastel bronzes and smoky tones 
difficult to describe. Each flower is marked with the dark ‘‘whiskers’’ 
characteristic of this strain and the overall effect is very striking.
