Ho Ho Hollyhocks!

You may have gathered by now that I really, really like Hollyhocks. Especially these ones. They are double hollyhocks. Might have to see whether there are other colours around for those double ones. They are easy to grow from seeds, perennial, and don't need any special care. We don't water them at all. Tuck them into a corner, preferably where wind doesn't blow too much (hard to find around here). They look good even when they are not flowering. There will be plenty of seeds later on, if anybody would like to grow these.

Aren't they gorgeous?!

I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
