Everyone knows these old garden plants. We 

 have them in various colors; they make beautiful 

 perennial hedges and backgrounds for other plants 

 In colonies about house foundations and in garden 

 corners they scarcely have an equal. While we 

 exercise the greatest care to have our Hollyhocks 

 true to color we cannot guarantee them because 

 plants grown from seed will not always come true
