& Hollyhock Antwerp Mixed 1 Seed Packet

This decorative variety of hollyhock comes in a mixture of colourful pastel shades with unu-sual palmate foliage resembling fig leaves. If you are a hollyhock fancier then look no further than this exceptionally rust resistant variety. The colour palate is a delight in shades of yellow, copper red, bright pink, pale pink and white. They are tall and perfect for the back of the border. Sow February to March or September to October. Germinate at 15-20C (59-68F) on the surface of a good free draining, damp seed compost. Cover with a very fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a poly-thene bag until after germination which usually takes 14-21 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination. Alternatively, sow late summer in a cool greenhouse and overwinter plants in cool, well lit conditions. Plant out the following spring. This produces larger plants and is recommended if the soil is heavy or badly drained. Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into trays or 7.5cm (3in) pots. Grow on in cooler conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 45cm (18in) apart. Prefers a well cultivated soil in a sheltered position.
