Hollyhock
Hollyhock, also known by the scientific name Alcea rosea, is a majestic and elegant plant that can add a touch of charm and color to any garden. Native to central and eastern Asia, this perennial plant is loved for its vibrant flowers and long flower spikes that rise majestically above the foliage.
The hollyhock is distinguished by its imposing height, which can reach up to 2.5 meters. Its sturdy, erect stems support large, dark green, lobed leaves, which create a perfect backdrop to showcase the flowers. These funnel-shaped flowers are often large, sometimes reaching 10 to 15 centimeters in diameter. They are characterized by their delicately crumpled petals and their bright and varied colors. The most common shades are white, pink, red and purple, but varieties with yellow, salmon or purplish flowers are also available.
