Hollyhocks are a cottage garden essential, bringing height and stature to the back of perennial borders. Hollyhock 'Crème de Cassis' is particularly mouth-watering with veined flowers in juicy blackcurrant that fade to paler berry shades around the edges. Each vertical stem bears a fascinating mix of double, semi double and single blooms. Hollyhocks make handsome cut flowers for summer bouquets. The nectar rich blooms are also a magnet for butterflies.
