That's the saddest part for somebody like me that lives in zone 9A. I have brought them up from seed into tiny little plants and now I just have them clinging to life on my back deck I have no idea where I could even put them in this Florida heat! It just sucks that nothing beautiful grows down here

I bought a bunch of mixed seed packs at the dollar tree last year. In early March, I threw the seeds down on a little soil & watered. Now I have a gorgeous patch of hollyhocks & other sweet flowers that bring the bees and humming birds 💗. I also threw down some cilantro seeds & let them go to flower. So cheap and pretty white flowered that reseed. . I’ve used them as flowering plants in my bedding for years. I moved to AZ few years ago and it’s def different than other climates for growing but your channel & website has given me so much valuable info. Thank u so much!

These pretties would grow up out of some cracks of the side of our family house when we first moved there 30yrs ago. Loved seeing them bloom every year. Sadly, my dad kills anything he touches. I’m Going to order some pink, red and black ones and plant them there again!!! Thanks for this info.

I'm looking forward to my 1st hollyhocks here in Peoria Az., I planted the seeds last November. My Grandma's both grew beautiful hollyhocks in their Prescott Arizona gardens. Thanks for all the information.

I think they are great for a country garden. Thank you for the tips.

I'm in Central California and it gets up to 110, even 115 degrees here. They thrive for me in full sun if kept watered. I get rid of rust immediately by taking a water-filled one gallon sprayer and stirring in 1/4 cup each of Alaska Fish fertilizer, liquid seaweed/kelp and granulated sugar. Spray both sides of leaves and watch the rust dissolve. Also works well for tomato bushes. The ones that I have in full sun all day grow 8-12 feet tall. The ones in filtered shade only get 3-4 feet tall. They bloom here from early spring all through the fall. The colors are stunning.

They were standing in a giant patch of purslane and had no idea it was edible, same way I had no idea that hollyhocks we're edible. She recommended eating the smallest and newest growths, especially the curled up new leafs. It was wonderful blanched and sauteed with butter lemon, dash of vinegar and lots of salt and pepper.

Most types should grow fine in your area.

I am growing Burpee hollyhocks here in Miami Beach, Florida. They started blooming in early March. This how I did it: last August I planted hollyhock seeds in peat pellets. In mid September I planted the peat pellets with the sprouts in the ground where they are now. I watered them and as they grew, I fertilized them with Miracle Gro . By January there were several feet tall. In February they continued growing and were getting very big. In early March, the first flowers opened. It's now late March and I have dozens of beautiul flowers. These hollyhocks are the northern variety that grow in New York and New England. There is one tropical hollyhock from Vietnam. But this is not the type I have. This is my first year growing them in Miami Beach so I do not know how they will respond to the hot and humid weather that have in the summer. I do not know if they will regrow and survive the summer. In any case I can start again with seeds in mid August. I have been amazed how well they have been growing here in South Florida.

Gee, in several minutes you covered a very thorough lot on hollyhocks...THANKS for that! I live in SoCal, with temps similar to yours. Hollyhocks do very well here too. Question: perhaps you may know the answer to something I encountered this morning when cutting back hollyhocks? On the petiole of one leaf, there was what looks like huge sesame seeds lying flat, one nestled against the other, for about 2 inches. There are 16 of them and all tan coloured. Thinking it might be weird scale; I pried one loose and cut it open - not scale. It has the morphology of a seed, but is certainly not a hollyhock seed. Any idea?
