Alcea rosea, the common Hollyhock, graces gardens with its timeless beauty. A classic cottage garden perennial, it has been adored since the 18th century for its majestic flower spikes, elegant colour range, and pollinator-friendly blooms. With racemes of large, saucer-shaped flowers in hues of pink, purple, red, white, and yellow, this hardy perennial adds a romantic touch to borders and vase displays. Standing at 180cm (71in) in height, these stately perennials are a favourite among pollinating insects. Despite their relatively short-lived nature, Hollyhocks are an easy-to-grow crowd-pleaser, offering a dramatic presence in any garden setting. 3x Bareroots.
