HOLLYHOCKS

the production of an unequaled strain of this magnifi- 
cent plant in the best shades of color known, with 
colossal spikes of bloom, lasting and blooming until 
frosts puts a check on their wonderful vitality and 
growth. Used as individuals well back in the hardy 
border, or dotted here and there amongst a bed of 
hardy shrubs, which they brighten with their brilliant 
spikes of gorgeous color after the shrubs are through 
flowering for the season, or as a hedge at the rear of a 
bed of hardy perennials, they cannot be surpassed. 
The stram we offer must be seen to be appreciated, 
with flowers whose petals seem as if made of the finest 
China silk. Give them a well fertilized soil with well 
rotted manure, deeply spaded, sufficient drainage, a 
plentiful supply of water in the grov^ang season, and 
success is assured in any location. Their enormous 
sale every season bespeaks their popularity.
