Description

The listing, Gorgeous Double White Hollyhock Seeds, 10 Seeds/Possible 20 Seeds*Up to 8' Tall has ended.

Wow, these are beautiful and proud spikes of big White delicate flowers! I have been calling them "Double", but they are full like Roses (but they do not have petals). Even the leaves are pretty, and edible!

Height: from 4' to 8' tall
They start blooming at the bottom of the tall spike in the spring and continue to open into summer.
Plant now or in the fall, cover with leaves, straw, or mulch in cold areas.
It helps to plant them by the house, garage, fence, or retaining wall. It holds them up when there are high winds.

Great cut flowers, floating in a pretty bowl or wine glass!

Decorate Chocolate cakes or cupcakes with them. They are edible. We never use chemicals in our gardens.

Seed collecting: The seed pods look like little drawstring purses. Leave them on the stalk until they are tan/brown, dry, and crispy. Then collect them and save to trade or share with your friends and envious neighbors.

The lucky winner will receive 10 White Double Hollyhock seeds.

If this auction goes over 400 credits, I will add 10 more seeds.

I also have Pink Hollyhock seeds, Wine Hollyhock seeds, and Country Garden Mix (all 3) listed. And will add an auction to Make Your Own Seed Packets to store or share your seeds. Check out all of my auctions!
Happy gardening!

TY will fan you back. These are beautiful with light Pink and Wine! Yes they are also used to make tea infusions and the wine/dark red are good for sore throats and inflammation. The leaves are added to salads.

Have you seen Hollyhock dolls? A bud is used for the head, toothpicks for body and arms, an open upside down Hollyhock for skirt. Good luck:)
