Tall spikes of papery flowers cheer cottage gardens or vegetable patches, summer to autumn. Fabulous along a picket fence or stonewall. Sow indoors in early spring for flowers the first year, or in summer for flowers next season. Lightly cover, germinates in 10-14 days. Expect rust, which will not affect blooms. Cut back blooms after flowering. (Family: Mallow, Malvaceae)
Indian Spring is an old-fashioned hollyhock with single and semi-double blooms. Large flowers in pastel shades of rose, pink and white bloom the first season and will grace the back of the garden for many years. Plant height 1.5m (5').
