Carters Double Hollyhock 
HOLLYHOCK 
Now that so many beautiful forms are 
to be obtained quite true from seed, this 
delightful subject should again become 
popular. We therefore recommend our 
customers to again give this useful plar ■ a 
place in their borders. 
Where plants have suffered from rust 
they should be sprayed with Bordeaux 
Mixture early in spring, and again when 
the flower spikes are forming. 
Seed is usually sown in summer, and the 
plants grown on to flower next season, but 
some prefer to sow in boxes or on a hotbed 
early in the year, prick the young plants out, 
and plant out in April to bloom same 
summer.

feathery foliage, which changes in the fall to a rich crimson. It is a perfectly hardy annual and 
can be sown in the open ground; is a rapid grower and flourishes on all soils. The best method 
is to sow the seed under glass, pot the seedlings off singly, and ultimately bed out. These round, 
shrublike plants (often called the Mock Cypress), are most useful for the center of any bed or when 
planted out in some decorative scheme. Height about 2 feet. . . Price, per oz. . 40 ; per pkt. .16
