Kiepenkerl Hollyhock "Chaters Double Pink"

Hollyhocks are magnificent flagship plants for cottage gardens and add a romantic touch. Chater's Double Pink flowers profusely, stands on firm, tight stems and is resistant to rust disease. The tall plants look great as a background in flower beds, between perennials, along fences, walls and in country gardens.
The densely double, large flowers in a delicate pink colour are a gardener's delight and bloom from July to September. Hollyhocks have a beautiful long-distance effect and are also ideal as cut flowers for tall vases.

Tips:

• Direct outdoor sowing from May
• Transplant from late summer
• Prefers wind-protected locations next to walls and house walls
• Remove older leaves regularly
• Cut for the vase when 3 to 5 flowers have opened; remove leaves and dip stems briefly in hot water
• Leave a few spikes on the plant for self-seeding
