"Towers of Beauty" HOLLYHOCKS 
You g*ain a year by planting: roots this spring: instead of seed. Hollyhocks bloom second 
year from seed, you know. 
It’s a good idea to plant both roots and seed. The roots frequently live over after bloom¬ 
ing one season, but not always. The seed you sow this year will provide a new supply o* 
blooming size roots for next summer. Sow seed from April to July. Plant roots early in 
spring. April best time. See prices below.
