Hollyhock, also known as Alcea, produces tall flower spikes covered with large, showy blooms in beautiful mixed shades. It grows well in cool to mild weather, prefers full sunlight and well-drained soil, and is suitable for garden beds, back borders, walls, and large containers. Native to Asia and parts of Europe, it became popular worldwide for its cottage-garden look, impressive height, and ability to add a bold vertical display to seasonal flower gardens.
