Hollyhock plants have soaring flowers which add a dynamic display to the back of your beds and borders. Hollyhock plants are happy in full sun and flower in the first year. They are hardy perennials, so will return year after year and provide perfect cut flowers for that special bouquet. Hollyhocks are edible and can be made into syrup or crystallised for cake decoration, and are perfect for pollinators too.
