The vast improvement made in recent years in this popular flower, renders it now one of the finest 

 and most decorative of hardy plants. They are invaluable for planting in the border or among shrub- 

 bery, or for grouping on the lawn; in fact there are few places where they may not be planted to great 

 advantage, their splendid spikes of bloom standing out with great brilliancy and effectiveness. 



Henderson's Hybrid Everblooming' Hollyhocks. — 



This e.xtremely valuable strain is a hybrid from two 

 distinct types and it is remarkable for its ever- 

 blooming propensity in addition to the large size 

 and beauty of its flowers. These are exceedingly 

 diverse in color, comprising very full double flow- 

 ers, semi-double, and single flowers with small, 

 double centres, whilst the petals of some are smooth 

 and others fringed and crimped. All are large and 

 many of them measure 5 inches across. In color 

 they range from the showy and rich maroon to the 

 dainty and delicate faintest blush through all the 

 intermediate shades with various colored throats 

 and markings. The plants are vigorous in growth 

 and branching in habit, bearing flower buds in 

 clusters along the spikes at the axils of the leaves 

 and these develop and expand in succession; thus 

 keeping up a continuous bloom from July until 

 frost. This everblooming character and the superb 

 flowers of such diversified form and color, render 

 it one of the most important acquisitions of recent 

 times. Everyone possessing even the smallest 

 garden spot should plant a few of them; nothing 

 will give greater satisfaction. Each, 15c.; doz., 

 $1.50; 100, $10.00.

 Separate colors; White, Yellow^ Rose, Pink, Red,

 mend this strain as the best in the country, unsur- 

 passed for brilliancy and purity of color and 

 perfection of form. Its tall, heavy spikes of large, 

 very double flowers of both delicate and rich colors 

 are most effective and beautiful. Each, 12c.; doz.,

 doz., $1.00; 100, $6.00. 



Allegheny Hollyhocks. — These differ in style and 

 make-up of flower from the other class. They are 

 very large — seldom less than 5 inches across — 

 wrinkled and shredded so as to resemble silk lace 

 with delicately fringed petals; rich in color from 



delicate shell-pink to the deepest ruby-red. Each,
