Helianthus. (Sunflower.) Remarkable for the stately growth, size and brilliancy of their flowers, making a very good effect among shrubbery and for screens. Hardy annuals. PER PKT. Helianthus Cucumerifolius HELIOTROPE. A half-hardy perennial, flowering during the whole season ; its delight- ful perfume makes it a most de- sirable bouquet flower; a splendid bedding plant, or can be trained as a greenhouse climber. Seed sown in the spring will make fine plants for summer blooming. PEr pkt. 5940 Heliotrope, 5939 â Collection of 6 40 Plants of the newest and best Heliotropes will be found offered on page 98. Hollyhock. (Chafer's Superb English Strain.) Few hardy plants combine as many good qualities, or lend them- selves as readily to varied uses, as the Hollyhock. For planting in rows or groups on the lawn, or for interspersing among the shrubbery, they are invaluable. The flowers form perfect rosettes of the most lovely shades of yellow, crimson, rose, pink, orange, white, etc. It is not surprising that this old favorite should again become popular; for, by careful selection, the flowers have been so much improved, that they are mar- vels of beauty and elegance. The Hollyhock requires a rich, deep soil, well drained, and will repay in quantity and elegance of bloom any extra care. A slight pro- tection during winter will be beneficial. We make a specialty of Hollyhocks, and the seed we offer is saved from the very best double flowers of pure and bright colors. Seeds sown during the summer make strong blooming plants for the following year. PER PKT. 5946 Hollyhock, Double White. Extra fine strain of perfectly double pure while flowers. Per oz. § 10 5948 â Double Yellow. Comprisin straw color and orange shades
