rocks. For best success,

Althaea rosea, hollyhocks 
Perhaps there is no plant more fraught with tradition and sentiment than this ever- 
loved old-fashioned member of the hardy garden. During the spring the large, lobed, 
heart-shaped leaves form a low mass of green, lighted up during the summer months by 
tall spikes of large bell-like flowers of all shades of pink, yellow and red, either single or 
double. Planted in the rear of the herbaceous garden or against a wall, their tall flower- 
spikes lend a majesty to the garden which can be gained from no other plant. In the 
foreground of shrubbery also, these old favorites give a brilliancy and warmth, and at 
the same time an added freshness at a dull season. A rich, deep loam is best suited for 
these plants, and for best results it should be well drained. Single mixed, 20 cts each, 
$1.50 for 10, $12 per 100. Double mixed, 20 cts. each, J.i 50 for 10, $12 per 100.
