HOLLYHOCK. 
The double white hollyhocks are very handsome flow¬ 
ers, and is a good substitute for the Camellia. The 
single Hollyhocks are known to almost every one, and 
need no description.

PRIMULA. 
The perennial Primulas should not be confounded 
with the Chinese Primrose, which is known by the 
name of Primula. The Auricula and Polyanthus are 
perfectly hardy in this vicinity, and form very pretty 
edgings to beds. Plants can be divided after they are 
done flowering, and new plants obtained. They can¬ 
not be too highly praised. Flowers early in the spring.

PYRETHRUM, (Feverfew.) 
The Pyrethrum will endure our coldest winter. The 
double white is a very desirable flower for cemeteries, 
as it requires little care and will continue to grow for a 
number of years if slightly protected during winter.

SWEET WILLIAM. 
Another of the time honored flowers. Plants per¬ 
fectly hardy. I know of no class of plants that will 
give better satisfaction to the sower, or give more bril¬ 
liancy to the garden than the Sweet William. Plants 
will flower for many years, but it is well to start new 
ones once in about three years.

WALLFLOWER. 
The Wallflower is a good winter flowering plant, to 
obtain strong plants for this purpose, I advise trans¬ 
planting into pots and sinking the pots into the earth 
and left to grow until autumn, when they should be 
removed to the house.
