No other Hollyhock looks like Halo, with its extra-large, two-tone single blooms on very tall stalks! A glorious sight in the sunny garden or your best vase, these lovely flowers are a must-have for anyone who values spectacular color and size in the sunny border! And now there's an award-winning mix of all the lovely Halo colors, from white with a golden eye to deepest violet with a near-black halo!

Halo is a very hardy perennial, surviving frigid zone 3 winters and sweltering zone 9 summers alike. In most gardens it will begin flowering in midsummer and continue through the season, ceasing only when the weather turns chilly in fall. These giant flowerstems sport numerous blooms crowded together -- when fully open, they are a solid wall of rich color! Of course, like all Hollyhocks the buds open from the bottom of the plant upwards, giving you weeks of fresh flowers!

This mix contains all the glorious Halo colors, and is such a beautiful, high-performing assortment that it received a Fleuroselect Novelty Award, Europe's highest honor for a plant from seed. Expect to see all the Halo color combinations here: white, primrose-yellow, all shades of pink and purple, blue, reds of every description -- each with either a dark violet-black eye or a golden-chartreuse halo!

Halo reaches 6 feet high in full sun and rich, well-worked, moist soil. It should be staked or otherwise supported to hold up all those giant blooms, and is destined to become a showstopper in the sunny border or meadow garden. Perfect behind shorter, bushier plants (which can hold it up without your help!), this Hollyhock is the star of any setting. Zones 3-9. Pkt is 25 seeds.
