HOLLYHOCK 'BURGUNDY TOWERS'
In stock
Description
This unusual form occurred here some time ago with strong stems carrying large, deepest crimson flowers and fig-shaped leaves. In common with other fig-leaved hollyhocks, these have proven to be very resistant to rust.
Sowing Advice
For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
