Description
Sunshine’s bright yellow blooms create a cheerful statement in the summer months.
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.
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.
