CURRIE'S SUPERB HOLLYHOCKS. 



The growing' popularity of this grand hardy perennial has 

 induced us to make a great effort to procure the choicest strains 

 of seed from every source. The seed we offer has been saved 

 from named varieties of every known shade of color, and can 

 be confidently recommended. Seed sown in June or July will 

 produce plants for blooming the next summer. H. P.
