Annual Hollyhocks. 



This new strain possesses all the virtues of the double 

 old-fashioned Hollyhocks with the additional advantage of 

 blooming from seed the first year. Plants started from 

 seed sown in March or April in the house or hot bed. trans- 

 planted in May into their permanent place, will bloom In 

 August and continue antil fall. The plants branch out free- 

 ly and are not easily attacked by the Hollyhock fungus, 

 therefore retain their fresh, bright green leaves until late. 

 The flowers are double, semi-double, or single.

 flowers and continues in full 

 beautv several months.

Kochia Scoparia 

 or Summer Cypress. 



The plants grow freely from 

 seed sown in the open ground, 

 when the trees are coming out in 

 leaf, and from the earliest stage 

 of growth in the spring until they 

 reach maturity in the fall the 

 plants are always of globe-like 

 form. The plants branch freely, 

 and stems are clothed with slen- 

 der light green leaves. Early in 

 the fall the ends of shoots are 

 thickly set with small bright- 

 scarlet flowers — the bushy plants 

 resembling balls of fire. The 

 plants are equally showy, planted 

 singly to show the round ball-like 

 form on all sides, or grown in 

 continuous rows or hedges.
