Product Description
Hollyhocks are indisputably lovely – their towering
stems and open saucer flowers, the epitome of a
cottage garden. The only trouble with hollyhocks is
that they are susceptible to rust, but this Alcea ficifolia
variety has better resistance than most.
| Genus: | Alcea ficifolia |
| Variety | 'Colour Mix' | Type: | Perennial |
| Sowing: | Sow in Mar-Aug. | Site: | Full sun, fairly poor but well drained soil. | Height: | H. 1m (3ft) | Spacing: | Plant 45cm apart. | Hardiness: | Hardy | Care tips: | For larger, finer plants grow as biennials sowing under glass in the summer and planting out that autumn. | Flowers: | ❀Late spring - autumn | For the vase: | Sear their stems for 20 secs before giving them a deep cool drink. Use their full height with either several colours jumbled together or a single colour in a stately vase. |
