Alcea rosea 'Spotlight Sunshine'
- Product number: 572512
- Origin: Eurasia
- Latin: Alcea rosea
Lemon yellow, with a slightly darker shade towards the centre. This new series of single-flowered hollyhocks is a significant improvement on existing varieties: The colour is extra intense and reliably pure, the plants grow vigorously and healthily and... if sown early (January-April), the plants will flower in the same year. Plants sown later behave as biennials.
Hollyhocks are the summer kings of your garden. They love full sun and grow in any soil type. Our range of colours is extensive. They are biennial, although rejuvenation often occurs from the basal rosette, which is stimulated by timely removal of spent flowers.
