Hollyhock Benary's Double 
Lilium Regale Kniphofia, Tritoma 
HOLLYHOCK, hp. The Hollyhock was formerly very 
popular as a garden flower but has been more or 
less neglected for some years. Recently renewed 
interest has been shown in Hollyhocks and the 
single as well as the double are now prized for 
garden display. They are truly beautiful and show- 
y firs, and should have a place in every garden. A 
fungus sometimes affects the foliage, appearing 
as black spots on the underside of the leaves, 
such leaves should be gathered and burned and 
the plants sprayed with pyrox.

IRIS, hp. These aie easily grown from seeds

can be depended upon for flowers every season.
