Description
Hollyhocks are popular garden ornamental plants. These particular hollyhocks are part of a mural painted on a stairwell in Old Town, Albuquerque, New Mexico. Hollyhocks are easily grown from seed. Breeds with red flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies. Cultivars have been bred, especially from A. rosea. They include the double-flowered 'Chater's Double', the raspberry-colored 'Creme de Cassis', and 'The Watchman', which has dark, nearly black, maroon flowers. The stems of hollyhocks can be used as firewood, and the roots have been used medicinally
