-——— BURPEE’S. HOLLYHOCKS 

Hollyhocks are old garden favorites, excellent for a background to dwarfer plants, for 
screening unsightly places, and planting along bare walls. They are of the easiest culture, 
succeeding best in deep, rich, well-drained soil. The plants like a warm, sunny location, 
sheltered from the wind and should be staked. Bloom from late spring until midsummer.

LILIES FROM SEED —ziliumo 
Lilies are easily grown from seed and last 
for years once they have become estab- 
lished. While the flowers delight in full 
sun, the soil around the base of the plants 
should be provided with a mulch. 
3830 Philippinense formasanum _ If 
seed is sown early, many blooms may be 
expected the first year. It usually requires 
6 to 8 months after seed is sown before 
flowers appear. If grown in pots, plants will 
often bloom two or three times a year. 
Long, trumpet-shaped white flowers with 
reflexing petals are borne in umbels and 
somewhat resemble an Easter Lily. 2 to 3 ft.
