The reason I got them on ebay (even though I had seeds from last years swap and from some trades) was because these were listed as red hollyhocks.We'll see if they actually are red but I figure the chances of at least some of them being red are better if they were collected from a red plant. Fingers crossed, I want red for the hummingbirds. Plus my pool garden needs some very tall plants for behind it and I am trying to stick with a red and pink theme or there. Of course a few other colors will be mixed in with annuals but I want the foundation to be pink and red. Mostly so I can watch hummers going to the flowers while I'm relaxing by the pool. : )
