NE W ANNUA L HOLL YHOCKS. 

 Bloom from Seed la 4 Months. 

 This new strain possesses all the virtues of the double old-fashioned Holly- 

 hocks, with the additional advantage of blooming from the seed the first year. 

 Sow in March. The plants branch out freely, grow to a respectable height, and 

 are not .so easily attacked by the Hollyhock fungus and therefore retain their 

 fre.sh, bright green leaves until late. The flowers are double, semi-double or 

 single. Last year we sowed .some of this seed in the open ground May 19th, and 

 OT* $^'oo*^ bloomed from the end of August until frost. Pkt., (100 seeds,) 26c.;
