Hollyhock Summer Carnival Double Mix 

Hollyhocks have been grown in gardens for centuries, their tall spikes of satiny, crepe-textured flowers making a fine display in mid-summer. It is best at the back of a sunny border, with something in front to hide their bare lower stems. This strain features fluffy double 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. 

The Hollyhock can be seen on farms and in many home gardens, a perfect choice for cottage gardens. It is popularly used as a backdrop plant and can be planted along fences as well.
