HOLLYHOCKS 
Truly “King of the Garden.” Hollyhocks inject color and 
picturesqueness into tall backgrounds with their densely set 
pillars, in height from 4 to 7 feet, ablaze throughout the sum¬ 
mer. Set against an old, weather-worn building, they screen 
with a suggestion of loving care.

Yellow, White, Maroon or Pink. 
3, 40e; doz., $1.50 ; 100, $8.00. 
Imperator A new English introduction of stately propor- 
■ . . — tions and exquisite coloring. The plant is 
uniquely branching, so that many lateral flower sprays are 
available for cutting, ideal deep vase subjects. The very 
numerous flowers attain 4 to 7 inches in width, similar in a 
large way to the Crested Begonias. The bottom stratum of 
petals is an unbroken foundation, although sharply fluted, 
and deeply fringed at the rims ; the center a distinct, high- 
built close-petaled rosette of invariably different color. 
Think of this effect; a rosette of cream with roseate shadows, 
set on a cerise-salmon foundation; or gilded rose centering 
a fluffy expanse of shell pink ; or bright canary nested on 
soft buff with rose suffusion; all delicate pastel shades. 
Mixed. 
3, 56c; doz., $2.00; 100, $12.00.
