Biltmore Hollyhock (Alcea)
It's been said that some flowers are sad, some are happy, and some, like the hollyhock, are "plain, honest, and upright." That might be true, but we were just happy to see the debut of the very first bloom of the year.
From the looks of things, the full sun and regular watering is going to be paying dividends all summer. Now we're waiting out the hummingbirds, who'll think the alceas are anything but plain.
