DOUBLE HYBRID EVERBLOOMING 
HOLLYHOCKS (Novelty.) 
The mixture contains a rich collection of colors, from white to 
deep black, light and canary yellow, flesh color, dark, light and 
salmon rose, scarlet, cherry, red, purple, blackish brown, etc. 
The plants can be treated as annuals; the seeds may be started 
in the house, or in hot-beds, frames, etc. in March or April. 
Plants transplanted by the beginning of May in the open ground 
will commence to flower about the end of July, 10 days after 
Holtyhocks that have been treated as biennials. The plants will 
remain in flower uninterruptedly until very late in the season. 
Plants branch out freely and grow to a height of about 10 feet. 
The double annual Hollyhocks are not attacked so easily by the 
Hollyhock fungus, but the leaves show the bright green and 
fresh color late in autumn. Price, per pkt. 25c., pkt. 15c. 
SINGLE HYBRID EVER BLOOMING HOLLY¬ 
HOCKS, EINEST MIXED 
A novelty of great value offered from America two years ago. 
Plants can be treated exactly as annuals; the seed may be 
started in the house or hot-beds in March or April, and will com¬ 
mence to flower in July, and stay uninterruptedly in flower until 
very late in the season, in a very rich collection of colors, from 
snowy white, rosy carmine, yellow, blood-red to the deepest 
black. Plants branch out freely and grow to a height of about 
10 feet. Price, per pkt. 15c.

HELIANTHUS CUCUMERIEOLIUS LILLIPUT 
(Compactus procumbent) (Novelty.) 
The Miniature Sunflower and all its varieties have become favor¬ 
ites in the gardens for their long and uninterrupted flowering. 
But this year’s novelty differs from Helianthus cucumerifolius 
Perkeo, being about half its size. The plants of the Lilliput 
measure only 6 to 8 inches in height, and are of real dwarf and 
compact habit and somewhat creeping growth, similar to 
Verbenas. The plants measure about 12 to 15 inches in diame¬ 
ter. On short stems are set, just above the healthy dark green, 
small foliage, the bright yellow single flowers, showing in the 
center a dark disk. This novelty will prove a valuable addition 
for small beds or groups, for edges and carpet beds, and will 
also be most useful for growing in pots. Wherever used, it will 
be a very free-flowering annual. Price, per pkt. 25c. 
HELIANTHUS CUCUMERIEOLIUS HYBRIDS 
(Novelty) 
The various strains of Helianthus are so much appreciated 
for cut bloom and general decorative purposes, that we need only 
mention that these Hybrids contain at least 30 different types 
to ensure their obtaining favor. Some of the flowers much 
resemble a single Cactus Dahlia. Some have dark, and others 
light centers. In shade of color they vary from the richest orange 
to almost white, while in some both extremes in color appear 
on the same petal. Richest at the base and fading off at 
the tip. There is considerable variation in the shape of the 
petals, and some plants produce double and semi-double flowers. 
A most desirable novelty. Price, per pkt. 25c.
