Growth Habit: Upright
Homeowner Growing Tips: Plant in average to moist soil that drains well. Cut back to 8 inches after blooming.
I am giving 5 stars for the quality of plant I got. However, the extra humid weather, a ravenous army of rabbits and my refusal to apply fungicide did them in. If you have better luck with hollyhocks, this is a great place to buy from.
