Description
Supplied as garden ready plants this variety of Hollyhock is an heirloom variety with saucer-sized ruffled double blooms. The large blooms attract butterflies and make an attractive structural display at the back of the border. They are spectacular as cut flowers for use inside. They have an old-fashioned, enchanting quality which is well suited in a cottage garden. The blooms are edible and will make any salad beautiful. Plant out Hollyhocks in sunny borders in fertile, well drained soil. Choose a position that is sheltered from strong winds. Space hollyhock plants at least 60cm (24") apart to improve air circulation and help prevent hollyhock rust. Feed and water regularly until hollyhocks are fully established. Support their tall stems with bamboo canes as the flower spikes develop. In autumn, cut back the old foliage and faded hollyhock flower stems, and apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the plant.
