Description
Bring an air of elegance and timeless charm to your garden with Alcea rosea Parkfrieden (Hollyhock). This delightful variety showcases tall spires adorned with soft, pale pink blooms that create a gentle, harmonious atmosphere in any planting scheme. Ideal for adding height to mixed borders, this hollyhock stands at around 1.5-2 metres, making it a stunning focal point along garden walls or at the back of flower beds.
Alcea rosea Parkfrieden thrives best in full sun and requires well-drained, moderately fertile soil. It blooms from June to August, drawing in butterflies and pollinators that bring life and movement to your outdoor space. With its fully hardy nature, this hollyhock is easy to maintain, adding classic beauty to your garden year after year.
Plant bare root hollyhocks with 45-60 cm of space between each to promote healthy growth and airflow, helping to minimise the risk of common hollyhock diseases. Though suited best for garden beds, this variety can adapt to large, deep pots if properly staked and cared for.
Supplied as bare root plants and dispatched in spring (March/April), Alcea rosea Parkfrieden promises a graceful, floriferous display that captures the essence of cottage garden planting. For gardeners seeking a serene yet captivating addition, this hollyhock is the perfect choice.
