Details

Hollyhocks are the tall, old-fashioned spires that lean against a fence like they own it. This is double hollyhock (Alcea rosea), usually a biennial or short-lived perennial.

How to grow

  • Sun: full sun; well-drained, moderately fertile soil
  • Sow: start indoors 6-8 weeks before planting out, or direct sow after the last frost or in early fall
  • Depth: barely covered; the seed likes light
  • Germination: 10-14 days
  • Blooms: usually in the second year, about 2 years from seed
  • Care: may need support in exposed sites; watch for hollyhock rust, slugs and cutworms

A kind note: seed-grown doubles can produce some single flowers, and the colors on offer (white, red, pink, yellow) are not guaranteed from a single pack.

Why we grow it

Hollyhocks have a way of making a fence look as if it planned the whole garden. Double hollyhock, Alcea rosea, is usually biennial or a short-lived perennial.

Give it full sun and room to stand. Blooms usually arrive in the second year, and seed-grown doubles may surprise you with some single flowers.

Good to know

A few practical answers before you plant.

Will these bloom the first year?

Hollyhocks from this seed usually bloom in the second year.

Will every flower be double?

No. Seed-grown doubles can produce some single flowers, and a single pack does not promise a particular color.
