Description
Queeny Purple Hollyhock is an All-America Selections winner with fringe-edged, double purple blooms reaching up to 4 inches across. The upright plants grow best in rich, fertile, moist, well-drained soil and flower in their second season.
Sow the seeds on the soil surface and lightly cover them, since light helps germination. Start indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost or sow outdoors after frost or in fall; transplant after frost and leave 18–24 inches between plants.
