Description

Racemes are filled with vibrant 1-inch blooms that attract butterflies and, when planted in large groups, create stunning patches of red, pink, and white. These compact, traditional beauties are just as easy to grow as regular hollyhocks but don’t require staking! They add a burst of color to borders and floral displays, growing quickly to provide abundant glowing color throughout the summer.
