STATELY HOLLYHOCKS 
Hardy Perennial — 5 to 7 ft. 
The Hollyhock is a valuable acquisition for the gardener because of its 
effective landscaping possibilities. They are the background plant par excel¬ 
lence. Flowers are very large, single, semi-double and double. If planted 
in late spring or fall they will bloom the following year. 
We have never seen a hollyhock with flowers set so solidly on the stalk, nor as 
consistently double as Imperator. 
Fraser’s Hollywood Star can usually be counted on for flowers the first year if 
seed is started indoors in February and March. This year we are adding Souvenir 
Mme. De Perrin which is quite like Imperator but runs to darker colors.
