Our Complete Seed Catalog Ready December 1st 
HOLLYHOCKS 
Stately, majestic hardy plants, from 6 
to 8 feet high, which are a necessary 
part of every old-fashioned garden and 
should find a place interspersed with 
shrubbery as clumps on the lawn or in 
the mixed border, where their colossal 
spikes of bloom produce bold and showy 
effects, which cannot be secured with 
any other flowering plant. 
We have this season a fine lot of

standard varieties; also the old favorites.
