Hollyhock Black

A true classic super rich dark mahogany nearly black! Hollyhocks are short-lived perennials that are great at self-seeding. They can be a little temperamental to germinate, so we recommend over-sowing your seed and then thinning as needed. They grow 5-8 ft tall. Direct sow in spring, about a week or so before your last frost date, or in late summer through early fall. All of our plants are grown right here on our farm in Hendricks county without any chemical intervention. Seeds saved from plants grown locally will grow and produce better then plants grown in foreign environments with different soil, weather and moisture then what we have here. All of the seed that we grow and sell are from non-hybrid heirloom varieties that are all non gmo and open pollinated. All of our seed saving work is done by hand without machines so you will get some plant material and chaff in with the seed. All seed packets have been made from recycled magazines. Approximately 30 seeds per packet.
