Alcea rosea 'Nigra'

A simply splendid addition to any garden. The colour. The aroma. The feeling of its delicate petals...

I like this Plant... it really brings out the colour of my eyes...
i would also reccomend the Daisy flower. great for lil girls trying to make their first flower bracelets... Perfect to keep the kids quiet for a couple of hours... :o)
p.s. love this site.

I lost all my hollyhocks due to over zealous 'gardener' helping clear garden.

I've just germinated some seeds, didn't realise they would be too late for this year. Should I still plant out or keep in pots until next spring?

I have never had a Hollyhock in my garden but this year i do....at first, because of its height, i thought it was a sunflower but then these beautiful black jet flowers started to appear. This Hollyhock is nearly 9.5 feet tall now. I dont know where is came from but im glad that it is here.....

I want to save the seeds and have promised friends and family some as they have all admired this 9.5 feet towering beauty. But i dont when is best to collect them.
Many thanks for your help.
