| Related to the hollyhock, this attractive, bushy perennial produces masses of large, palest-pink blooms with striking, almost black markings. Loves full sun but will tolerate part-shade. May require staking on exposed sites. | ||||||||||||
| Sowing and/or growing instructions | ||||||||||||
| Sow under glass from late winter to early spring in good quality compost, covering with a little compost or fine vermiculite to a depth of about 1.5mm. Germination usually takes 14-21 days. Transplant seedlings into individual pots and grow on in cooler conditions, planting out after all risk of frost has passed. Will usually flower in the first year. |
