Product Description
Providing architectural height to borders, Alcea Rosea (Hollyhock) is a vigorous biennial or short-lived perennial boasting tall, sturdy spikes of outward-facing, funnel-shaped, pale pink flowers adorned with conspicuous staminal columns. Blooming from late spring to late summer, the showy flowers are arranged all around the spike and bloom from the bottom up. The leaves are large, deeply lobed, and somewhat crinkled. Extremely hardy, Alcea rugosa is noted for its greater resistance to hollyhock rust. An old garden favorite, Hollyhock is best when grown against a wall or fence or at the back of the border.
As you can see, Hollyhocks get quite tall, so they are right at home in the back row of your flower garden. Their tall upright stalks are covered from top to bottom with endless blooms in stunning shades. Every summer, I never cease to be amazed at their loveliness towering over me, and I never tire of watching the bumble bees roll around in their blooms delighting in being covered in pollen. Hollyhocks are easy to grow, grow quickly, and require basically no attention once they have taken off.

Hollyhock Growing Tips
- Location: Hollyhocks prefer full sun but can tolerate light shade. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight for best flower production. Pick a site sheltered from the wind to prevent these tall plants from flopping.
- Soil: Hollyhocks tolerate a wide range of soil conditions but will not tolerate wet winter soils. Plant in welldraining, fertile soils for optimal results.
- Watering: Young plants thrive in moist environments. Mature hollyhocks typically require water during extended periods of heat and dryness.
- Pruning: After flowering, cut back the stalks to encourage a second bloom. At the end of the season, remove old stalks to reduce disease risk.
- Propagation: Hollyhocks can be propagated from seeds. Sow seeds outdoors anytime from spring (after all danger of frost has passed.) until 2 months before the first heavy fall frost. If you prefer to start them indoors, do so about 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area.
- Pest and diseases: Hollyhocks are susceptible to several pests and diseases, including anthracnose, leaf spot, rust, Japanese beetles, and spider mites.
