Hollyhock

And it's a pretty one too...love the cottagey feel.

Thanks Kate ... it is growing in dry shade so it must be 'right plant, right place' as they say!

I love all Hollyhocks. There are 1or2 lovely dark red ones growing around my area. Pity I can’t put pics on.

Oh dear, is GoY still not allowing your photos to go on?

Hope you manage to keep this going, it's pretty.

Thanks Siris, the leaves have yet to develop the rust, but it's bound to appear eventually!
