I'm not sure I knew it was edible. I have a few in the yard but have never eaten it. I should plant a few more.

@plantabundance 3 года назад

I like to plant them in areas that need a little bit more color popping through. It has a mild flavor. Very versatile. Cheers!

@readingsbycara 3 года назад

*Yes!* 💯 I thought the same thing. Plant more. I have a plant, dubbed the "watchman" for its dark maroon/ almost black flowers. 🧡 💚 💜 *Thanks for the education, Dan.*

Bought a property where hollyhocks keep reseeding themselves. I've never interacted with them once and they keep coming back. No pruning, no cutting, no planting, nothing. This year I decided to add a few varieties to the mix including a black flower variety. Let's hope they are just as easy.

I got hollyhock bc they were so simple to grow and they are pretty. I had no idea they were edible 😂 now from what I read they are short lived preninual. They live for 2-4 years and die but reseed. I have grown to love them bc they are so easy to grow and care for. This just makes me love my hundreds of hollyhock even more 🥰

Dan, really enjoyed this video. I grew up on a property FULL of hollyhocks. They were so much fun as kids. the flowers were dancing ballerinas! I have been unsuccessful growing them as an adult. I will keep trying. Please explain “chop and drop”...is this a way to use them as mulch once they are done for the season?

@bonniele6116 2 года назад

Thank you Dan for the video on Hollyhocks, they became a huge fav of ours. Two years ago they were so abundant and beautiful, that passerby's would stop their cars just to take pics of them. Sadly, last year there were many less then had bloomed the first year. Is this normal? I live in Michigan, so this year they bloom later then I think a warmer climate might. This year we have about 5 or 6 plants that came up and look like they may make it to flowers, there are other smaller plants popping up too, but those I'm sure will not make flowers this year. My biggest problem is trying to support the stalks they have grown to up to 8 feet tall! We tried supports and then tall stakes and tieing they back but it still did not have the support they needed. The abundance of beautiful flowers really pulls them in all directions, especially after a rain. What type of support works best for such tall plants? Thank you for any tips you or anyone else here may provide. I really appreciate the help.

Can I just plant them as you did in your video . Thanks in advance Neil

@GirlfriendNinja 3 года назад

I would have liked more info. Like, when to plant it based on zones, how long it takes to grow, how tall it gets, what parts are edible, just more detail. I have been trying to grow this for years. It will look as if it’s catching on, then it will die out. It was reportedly my great grandmother’s favorite flower and I’d like to honor her by growing it.

@jjxartist 3 года назад

Here in So Cal, I have the deep purple flower version. I also have a ton of seeds should you find anyone who needs them I am happy to help. I bought them as marshmallow seeds but found out it is probably hollyhock, but I don't mind as they have the same medicinal qualities. I make tea from it and love it. I also cut, dry and use the old stems/stalks to stake up other plants. They get about 6-7' tall so very useful!

This is probably a stupid question but.... My Great Dane decided to walk thru my garden and broke a couple of my Hollyhock stalks off at ground level.

Hollyhocks are my favorite flowers. They're one of the few non-native plants that are allowed to live in my garden. I couldn't decide on a garden theme, so there are five garden areas in my yard: poison, pollinator, woodland, prairie, and my hollyhocks are in the cottage garden right outside my front door. I didn't know they were edible, I've always left them for the leaf miners. Grrr.... dumb bugs.

Why would anyone want to eat hollyhocks unless they were on drugs or something? Hollyhocks fit right in to the English cottage garden along with delphiniums and lupines. I don´t think I would want to have them for dinner.
