About this item:
The Majorette Mix Hollyhock is particularly notable for its compact size, reaching only about 30 inches in height, which is significantly shorter compared to traditional hollyhocks that can grow up to 7 feet tall. This dwarf stature makes it highly versatile, ideal for smaller gardens, borders, or container planting. The plant boasts large 3 1/2″ double flowers that bloom profusely, covering the stalks from top to bottom in mid-summer. The blossoms unfurl sequentially from the bottom upwards, ensuring a prolonged display of vibrant colors. These attractive flowers not only add visual appeal to your garden but also invite pollinators suchaw bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, enhancing the ecological vibrancy of your outdoor space. Hollyhocks are relatively easy to grow from seeds, which can flower in the first year if sown early enough. They are low-maintenance once established, thriving in full sun to partly shaded conditions and requiring only average watering practices to flourish.
