Mixed Hollyhock varieties can produce flowers in red, pink, white, yellow, purple, lavender, and apricot shades. Depending on the seed mixture, plants may also develop single, semi-double, or fully double blooms. Individual flower colors and forms are not guaranteed in every plant.
Traditional hollyhocks are usually biennial and produce foliage and roots during their first growing season before flowering in the second year. However, some varieties, including selected first-year flowering mixes, can produce blooms in their first season when started early under suitable growing conditions.
Hollyhock rust is a common fungal disease that causes orange-brown spots, particularly on the undersides of leaves. Provide adequate spacing and airflow, water near the soil rather than over the foliage, and remove affected leaves promptly. Avoid overcrowding to help maintain healthy plants.
