The Eldorado grows very rank and tall and is surmounted by great golden balls, sometimes fourteen inches a- round. As many as fifty or sixty blos- soms have been counted on a single plant at one time. The flowers are very double, with petals quilled as in the Dahlias, appearing in shades of lem- on, golden or orange yellow. It is by far the handsomest of all the Man- golds. Massed with dark reds, such as the Fringed Cockscomb or Prince's Feather (Amaranthus), it makes a gorgeous display. Pkt., 3 MARIGOLD, CALENDULA. The Calendula Mar- igolds are favorites a- mong lovers of yellow flowers. Do not allow them to seed much,and they will bloom until the latest frosts. The flowers are double,and range from white through light yellow, golden and orange yel- low shades. My own special mixture con- tains a goodly quan- tity of the Meteor, the finest Calendula, with its large, double, yel- low flowers, striped with orange.
