200 Hollyhock Flower Seeds "Chater’s Double Mix" Alcea Rosea

Hollyhocks are old-fashioned favorites native to central Eurasia and may have been brought to western Europe during the Crusades. Hollyhocks were brought to America by early colonists to be used as medicinal plants and for their easy to grow nature. ‘Chater’s Double Mix’ is a popular heirloom variety developed in the 1880’s by the English horticulturist Chater of Essex. It has large, fully double flowers in a variety of colors including shades of pink, red, white, and yellow. A beautiful option for the back of borders, cottage, or cutting gardens.

Sowing: For early spring growth, direct sow in August or September; hollyhock seeds can also be spring planted after the last spring frost. This plant grows best in full sun and rich soil, in a protected location. Plant the hollyhock seeds no more than 1/4" deep and do not allow the soil to dry out until the seeds germinate, which should occur in 14-21 days.

All multiple orders of the same seed are put in the same bag. For example if you order 500 beefsteak tomato seeds x 3 then 1500 seeds will be put in the same bag. We do not send out 3 individual bags with 500 in each. This goes for all seeds unless they are listings of different seeds.
