CLOSED: Hollyhock Seed Only Swap/Trade.
Deb...Your Seeds Have Arrived.
I am Truly Surprised by the Lack of Participants that Have Signed-Up from Dave's Garden.
The Other Internet Gardening Sites(Including the 'Other' One are Coming in Strong.
I Guess there are Just No Hollyhock Seed Savers/Traders Here.
You Have Until November 3rd to Sign-Up and Have Your Seeds Mailed.

Just saw this post & would be happy to send. My hollyhocks were
abundant seed producers this year & I am delighted to know someone
else is interested in these beautiful flowers.

Hollyhock!! I wish I had something to trade, but this is my first year here in KY and I will not be able to start planting til spring. Maybe next year I can have something to trade. I have a long narrow area against a fence that I plan to plant as many Hollyhocks as I can buy. I've started my wish list from catalogs and when I get my SS check I'll send the order in. Good luck to you all.

Wonderful Cris...You Have Mail.
I Have Sent You a D-Mail with My Address for Mailing for the Swap/Trade.
So Far there are 23 Individuals Participating from Different Internet Sites.
Many are Sending in the 50 Maxium Number of Seed Packets so You Will See Some Great Colors/Varieties in Return.
To Everyone:
Please Make Sure Your Seeds are Dried Out.
(The KLittle Weevils I Can Contend with...I'm a Gardener...I'm Use to it...lol)
Just a Reminder that Plastic Ziplocs will Cause Hollyhocks/Malvas to Sprout in the Mylar Containers if They are Not Dried Out.
I Have About 30+ Open Ziplocs that are Holding...Hollyhock Seeds Drying as We Speak that Were Sent in for the Swap.

I would like to participate...I am still harvesting hollyhock seeds here, but I am sure I can provide the 50 packets of Chater's Double Mauroon, if someone else has not sent that one in yet.
Thanks, MaryAnn
I would like to participate as well :-)
