Alcea rosea 'spring celebrity lilac'

Low-growing, semi-double hollyhock in the colour lilac. Blooms as early as the first year after sowing. Suitable for the border, but also nice in a pot.

Sowing instructions
One annual hollyhock should be sown in early spring so that you will see flowers that same year. Hollyhock is a light germinator. So you better not cover the seeds with a layer of soil. Instead, lay the seeds shallowly, pressing lightly so that there is contact with the substrate and making sure the soil stays moist - not wet. Give the seeds some time, they take an average of 2-3 weeks to germinate.
