Double Althea. 
Hardy Shrubs and Trees. 
Our shrubs are all strong, well-rooted, transplanted stock from 
open ground. Once carefully planted in suitable positions, they 
increase in size and beauty from year to year, and require but little further care. The time of bloom of the 
different sorts extends over nearly the whole season, though the greatest show is to he expected in spring and 
early summer. We will be glad to select varieties for you which will give the longest possible season of bloom.
