Alcea rosea | Simplex | Hollyhock Cactus & bird Cut back after flowering toThis lovely variety of Hollyhock has large, single flowers in a mix of colours, including white, pink, purple and red. Perfect for romantic cottage garden borders, or use its architectural height and structure to your advantage in the modern garden. Their height means staking may be required, especially in windy areas. Or, group with other taller plants to help provide some support and protection. Height around 1. 6m 1. 8m in a sheltered position.
