Hollyhock Summer Carnival Mix

This heirloom variety of hollyhock will bring drama to the garden with its tall impressive double multicolored blooms. Hollyhocks are tall, slender plants growing up to 6 feet tall and provide a unique texture to the back of a flower bed. A wonderful addition to cottage style gardens or along a picket fence. Hollyhocks are biennials or short lived perennials. Indian Spring variety will bloom the second year after seeding.

Hollyhocks are a short-lived perennial, tending to last about 2-3 years.

Direct Sow approximately one week before the threat of frost has passed. Hollyhocks can also be sown indoors approximately 9 weeks before your final frost and transferred outdoors about 2-3 weeks after the final frost has passed.

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost. Sow the seeds 1/4 of an inch deep in cell trays or 2-3 inch pots. Keep soil moist at 70 degrees F to encourage germination.

Direct sow outdoors onto the surface of the soil and compress firmly, but do not cover. Hollyhocks require sunlight to germinate.
