hollyhock - zebrina

Not a true hollyhock, but growing much the same, this Malva was widely planted in Victorian cottage gardens. It is one of the most beautiful plants we offer and one of the most popular heirloom plants at historic gardens. The flower spikes bloom profusely with lovely lavender flowers that have stunning deep purple stripes. Looks like a small, single hollyhock.   Although Zebrina is an annual, it is a heavy seeder and can return the following year on its own. Packet includes 40-50 seeds.
