The wait is over.

A the first time in 3 years I have had Hollyhocks preparing to bloom in my garden. In 2020 I had a single stalked Hollyhock with deep burgundy red flowers. Over the intervening years hollyhock bushes have slowly grown but produced no flowering stalks. This year I have 2 flowering plants in different parts of the garden, and they both have these salmon pink blooms

Lovely flower, so lucky that I can have a look at it.
