Planting instructions
Sow the seeds in well-draining soil and a sunny location, spacing them adequately to ensure healthy growth. Thin seedlings once they emerge.
Growing Requirements
Pests
Hollyhocks may be affected by rust, aphids, and slugs. Regular care and well-spaced planting can help mitigate these issues.
soil
They thrive in well-draining, moderately fertile soil, and adding compost can encourage robust growth.
spot
Choose a sunny, sheltered spot where they can get at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
temperature
Hollyhocks grow best in temperatures ranging from 18-25°C, though they can tolerate slightly cooler or warmer conditions.
watering
Water regularly, ensuring the soil is kept moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering in cooler months.
how to harvest
Cut the flower stems when the blooms are just beginning to open. Use sharp scissors or a knife, place the cut flowers immediately in water, and remove any leaves that might sit below the waterline. To keep them fresh in a vase, change the water every 2 days and trim the stems for longer-lasting arrangements.
