Chater's Double Violet Hollyhock

Chater's Double Violet Hollyhock

Excellent at hiding unattractive views.

Use this sun-loving giant as a garden focal point or to add height interest in back of a border, or plant several together to create a living privacy screen. Towering stalks up to 7' tall yield many crepe-textured, fully double flowers. The nectar of the violet, 3-5" blooms is ambrosia for butterflies, honeybees and hummingbirds. Because it's juglone tolerant, this hollyhock is safe to plant near black walnut trees.

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.
