Hollyhock Seeds for Sale – Non-GMO Heirloom

that bees and hummingbirds visit all summer. They are easy from seed, dramatic in bloom, and happy to reseed themselves for years of vertical color. Who it's for Made for cottage gardeners and anyone who wants height and drama at the back of a border. Hollyhocks are simple to grow and pleasantly old-fashioned, and because they reseed, a single planting can naturalize into a lasting patch. Give them a sunny wall or fence to shine against. How & when to plant Sow hollyhock seeds directly in late spring or early summer, or start them indoors, barely covering the seeds since they need a little light. Keep the soil moist; seedlings appear in about 10 to 14 days. Grow hollyhocks in full sun in rich, well-drained soil, spacing plants about 18 to 24 inches apart, and give the tall stems a sheltered spot. Our Hollyhock growing guide has more. Growing & care Hollyhocks are biennial, so plants sown one year usually flower the next, then set seed and often come back on their own. Keep them watered, stake the tall spikes in windy gardens, and remove faded flowers to tidy the plants. Sowing a fresh batch each year keeps the blooms coming without a gap. Bloom & care Once they flower, hollyhocks put on a show for weeks, opening from the bottom of the spike upward in shades from soft pastels to deep, rich tones. Leave some spikes to ripen seed if you want them to self-sow, or collect the seed to sow where you like. Benefits & uses Hollyhocks bring instant charm and vertical height to a garden, perfect against fences, walls, and the back of a border. Their tall spires are a magnet for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and they are a beloved, nostalgic choice for a classic cottage look.
