New Mammoth Allegheny Hollyhocks 



THESE grand New Allegheny 

 Hollyhocks are exceedingly 

 beautiful, and entirely differ- 

 ent from the old kinds. Hardy, 

 and if started early will bloom the 

 first season. They grow five to 

 six feet high, begin to bloom very 

 quickly and are covered almost 

 their whole length with large, 

 double chrysanthemum -like 

 flowers, from four to five 

 inches across, and of such ex- 

 quisite colors and texture they 

 look as if made of crushed silk, 

 and produce a beautiful rainbow 

 effect. Splendid for Beds, 

 Borders, Porch Fronts, etc., 

 wherever a partial screen of beauti- 

 ful flowers is desired.
