Hollyhocks


I think I show my hollyhocks every year either here on my blog or on Facebook. But each year I'm amazed by their beauty!


Several years ago, my dear friend Denise of My Vintage Gardens sent me the seeds. I think of her every time I look at them. Denise says you're not suppose to thank someone for seeds. But they truly are the gift that keeps on giving!

  3. I'd be happy to send you seeds Becky. You too Debbi. Denise moved since she gave me these seeds. She may need them too.

  4. They are gorgeous! I have quite a few blooming this year but the darn rabbits decided they liked the taste of them this year and snapped alot of them down. They have never done that before. Little buggers. Send me some of those pink ones too. Thanks. So glad you enjoy them. You too Becky.
