25 Seeds Double Rosey Red Hollyhock Perennial Giant Flower Garden Plant

Add a touch of vintage charm and cottage garden elegance with these Double Rosey Red Hollyhock seeds. Known for their towering spires of fully double, ruffled blooms in a soft, rosy red hue, these perennials create a stunning backdrop in any sunny border. Hollyhocks are beloved by pollinators and provide vertical interest, making them a classic choice for gardeners seeking old-fashioned beauty and reliable summer color.

Ideal for planting along fences, walls, or at the back of mixed beds, these hollyhocks thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. They are typically grown as biennials or short-lived perennials, flowering in their second year. Once established, they may self-seed, ensuring seasons of continuous bloom. Deadheading spent flowers can encourage a longer display, and staking may be needed to support the tall stems against wind. Perfect for cutting gardens or naturalistic plantings.
