My Mum has them and is continually thinning them out! But for me, they just don't really do it. maybe I mulch too well! I now have the common orange, but used to have a lovely buttery cream coloured one. If you're intersted shelly, I'll swap you some foxglove seed for the Hollyhocks. They take two years to grow and flower, but set seed quite easily and are a lovely addition. I think they are relatively waterwise also, as I have some in quite an inhospitable position and still they do well! I only have the purple/pink ones but I think they are lovely! Sue |
