The listing, Hollyhock Seeds*Gorgeous Rich Wine*Plant Now*20, 40, Or 60 Seeds! has ended.
Wow! These will get attention and make all your neighbors envious!
Up to 8' tall spikes of beautiful rich Burgundy/Wine flowers will add color to your garden or yard. I have them in 4 different locations on our acreage. Its awesome to see them where ever I go, even looking out the kitchen window by the garage (1st & 4th pic)!
Easy to grow
Our most popular flower seeds
Plant in the fall or spring and cover with leaves, straw, grass clippings, or mulch in cold areas
Perfect along a fence, house, garage, or retaining wall.
Seem to be slightly drought tollerant, I do not water them very often.
Usually do not need staking unless there are very strong winds. We have strong winds in NE, so I left some volunteer trees to help them. A customer asked about a trellis. It would be great behind them. You can tie the tall stalks to it.
Hollyhocks are fairly short~lived, I have heard around 3 years, so be sure to scatter some seeds every year to make sure they never stop. They will also drop some seeds naturally.
The first picture was taken in May, and I took the picture of the single flower 7/23/12. Really windy that day, and I had to bend the stalk down to get a picture, it is so tall.
The flowers and leaves are edible, to decorate cakes, etc. We never use chemicals in our gardens.
The lucky winner will receive 20 fresh seeds from this year's plants.
**If this auction goes over 500 credits, 40 seeds, if GIN is used, you will get 60 seeds:)
