Alcea ficifolia single hybrids
Single Hollyhock |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.030.800
Hollyhocks have been grown in gardens for centuries, their tall spikes of satiny, crepe-textured flowers making a fine display in mid-summer. Best at the back of a sunny border, with something in front to hide their bare lower stems. This tall strain features old-fashioned single flowers, in a wide range of pastel shades. Plants usually act as short-lived perennials, but will re-seed themselves for many years. The single forms are often said to be more resistant to Hollyhock rust. Attractive to both butterflies and hummingbirds.
