Carnival Hollyhock Mixture (Alcea rosea) is renowned for its vibrant display of mixed colors, ranging from deep reds and pinks to whites and yellows, which makes it a spectacular addition to garden. This biennial plant typically grows tall, making it an excellent choice for creating dramatic backdrops or adding vertical interest in garden borders. Its large, showy flowers bloom in the second year after planting, providing a prolonged visual feast throughout the summer months.


Gardeners appreciate Hollyhocks for their ease of growth and minimal care requirements, ideal for both novice and experienced gardeners. They thrive in well-drained soil and prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade. Hollyhocks are also excellent for attracting pollinators; bees, butterflies, and even hummingbirds are drawn to their nectar-rich blooms, making them beneficial for supporting local wildlife. Although biennial, they often self-seed, ensuring a continuous presence in the garden year after year.

ADDITIONAL SOWING INFORMATION

GROWERS TIP
Some growers soak the seed in warm water for a few hours prior to sowing. This isn’t required but can lead to better germination. If started indoors, use biodegradable CowPots, sowing 1 seed per pot, 8 weeks prior to the last frost. Transplant or direct sow when temperatures are at least 65°F. Biennials will grow a strong root system in their first year, later wilting on the surface with frost, only to return and flower in its second season.
