Hollyhock (1/4 lb)

Hollyhock is a cherished heirloom flower known for its towering height, bold colors, and old-fashioned charm. These tall garden flowers bring vertical interest and nostalgic beauty to cottage-style landscapes, growing up to eight feet tall with blooms that rise dramatically along sturdy stalks. Ideal for back borders, fences, or walls, hollyhocks are a favorite among pollinators like bees and butterflies, adding life and movement to the garden. The plants typically bloom in their second year but often reseed themselves, allowing for year-after-year displays with minimal effort. Whether you're designing a new flower bed or enhancing an established space, hollyhock seeds offer an easy, classic way to create lush, colorful garden layers.
