Hardy Perennials 



Hollyhocks 



Hollyhock {Altbxa rosea) 



Like the Foxglove or Canterbury Bell, the majestic 

 spikes of the Hollyhock are essentially part of the olcl- 

 fashioned garden. Hollyhocks require a deep, ricli soil 

 and are particularly at home in a sunny corner. An 

 occasional spraying of bordeaux mixture should be 

 applied if rust appears on the foliage, and a sprinkling 

 of lime added to the soil when cultivated.
