Description
Add a touch of classic garden beauty with Alcea rosea Majorette Double Pink (Hollyhock). This compact variety stands out with its lush, fully double blooms in a delicate pink, making it perfect for smaller gardens or for bringing bursts of colour to borders and mixed planting schemes.
Unlike the towering traditional hollyhocks, the Majorette series offers a more manageable height, typically reaching up to 60-90 cm, while still delivering the dramatic visual impact hollyhocks are known for.
Ideal for full sun positions, these hollyhocks thrive in moderately fertile, well-drained soil and require only moderate moisture to flourish. Flowering from June to August, they bring continuous summer interest, and their vibrant, fluffy blooms are a magnet for butterflies and other pollinators, enhancing the life and movement in your garden.
Plant Alcea rosea Majorette Double Pink in groups to create a striking display or use them as an eye-catching front border feature. Space plants about 30-45 cm apart for the best results. Although they are better suited for garden beds, they can be grown in large, deep containers with proper support and care.
Supplied as bare root plants, these hollyhocks are ready for planting in spring (March/April), promising robust growth and a beautiful show of flowers. Transform your garden with the classic, charming presence of Alcea rosea Majorette Double Pink (Hollyhocks) and enjoy their easy-care, floriferous display all summer long.
