Tip of the Week
The French Marigolds that were by far the most popular, in the early years of the 20th century, were the dwarf singles. Tall, single flowering forms that grew to 3 ft were going out of favour and the double "carnation flowered"and Peony centred types, that are so popular these days, were felt to be vulgar. The Edwardians favoured the yellows, browns and rust shades and strangely , no mention was made of the orange shades that we all take for granted nowadays. Popular sorts, (all growing between 6" and 8" tall.), were: "Cloth of Gold": Rich yellow. "Diadem": Chestnut and red and yellow. "Legion of Honour": Yellow and brown. "Silver King": Pale yellow and maroon. "Star of India": Crimson , striped yellow.
