Description
This beautiful hollyhock is a knockout. Growing up to 6 feet, each flower stem is arrayed with big (up to 4) blooms in raspberry and white. You'll have the semi-doubles with a fluffy center, and then the singles, which feature a bright yellow center, all on the same plant.

Everybody loves Hollyhocks--tall beauties that create tremendous color wherever they grow. They quickly create spires of flowers up to 5 or 6 feet.

These old-fashioned plants are famous for being biennial which means they bloom their second year from seed. But ours are already in their second season, so they're guaranteed to bloom this coming summer.

Hollyhocks are great for the back of the border, and also as a blooming screen for unsightly views or other things you'd like to hide with beautiful flowers all summer long.

    Comments about American Meadows Hollyhock Creme de Cassis:

    Although the plant did not grow very tall, the blooms were amazing. Huge white flowers with deep burgundy/purple throat. Highly recommend for the back of the border or in front of a wall or fence.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
