Chater's Double Red Hollyhock

Chater's Double Red Hollyhock

Giant beauty is ideal for growing in back of a border.

This towering, flowering plant is perfect for adding visual interest behind other, smaller perennials. Butterf lies, hummingbirds and bees can't resist the allure of the delicately crinkled, scarlet, 3–5" blooms. The fully double flowers grow singly on stalks reaching up to 7' tall. Not only is it drought tolerant and unappetizing to deer, this hollyhock grows safely beneath black walnut trees. It tolerates the toxic juglone released into the ground by the trees' roots. Excellent as a cut flower. Performs best in rich, moist, well-drained soil. Alcea rosea

Important Shipping Notes:

Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.

We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
