~HOLLYHOCKS~
Last year Hubby planted Burpee Country Romance Hollyhocks
behind the garage.
behind the garage.
This year they grew and have been in bloom about a month.
Some by passed my husband's 6 foot height.
Love the colors of three different shades of pink.
Hope they return next year!
Nice Cottage Style LOOK to them.
So glad you stopped by today.
Have a terrific week-end!!!

beautiful and healthy hollyhocks! love the colors.. have tried growing hollyhocks in the sacramento area to no avail. sigh. my mother shared childhood memories of making dolls out of the flowers and pods. sweet.
They are beautiful! I am so glad you posted these pictures. I planted Hollyhokes in pots this year, but didn't take care of them so they didn't make it.
Next year, I'll plant them right in the ground. At least now I know what the finished product is supposed to look like, and that it is worth all the effort!
Enjoy the weekend!

The hollyhocks is really an old-fashioned flower. I remember them being in my neighborhood when I was a child. We had some in the yard, also some verbena and I think, something Mother called "pinks."
The colors on the hollyhocks are lovely. I especially like the deep red. Thanks for sharing.
I adore holly hocks; they are such beautiful, cheerful flowers.
God bless you and yours, Miss D.
Dear Deanna,
Your Hollyhokes are so pretty and I love the beautiful colours.
Really does make a lovely show in your garden and they are so tall.
Happy new week

Dd, thanks for posting. Looking at the photos reminds me why I planted them in the first place. The one beside me reach a little over 9 ft before the high winds last week broke of the top 6". Surprised they are still standing. Not bad for a $1 pack of seeds from Menards. Since they are self seeding I am hoping for a hollyhock forest behind the garage. :)
