Alcea rosea'Double Apricot'
"Double Apricot Hollyhock"

Alcea rosea 'Double Apricot' "Double Apricot Hollyhock"

 

OK, she's not a perennial, but O-M-G, Ms. 'Apricot' sure makes up for it by bearing the most gorgeous Hollyhock flowers ever to grace a garden. 3-4” across & extremely double & held crowded to the stems. The flower could look kitschy if not for the 6-8' tall stalks they adorn or the color that MELTS YOUR HEART – soft pink blushed with glowing apricot. It you've never seen it, it is to die for! Here along the coast it blooms from June till Fall on 6-8' branching stalks. Blooms first year in California. Self sows!
