A striking variety – these large white flowers with dark red centres really draw attention. Hollyhock ‘Halo Blossom’ produces tall flower spikes on strong bushy plants with plenty of eye-catching flowers on each spike. The Halo series have been carefully selected and hybridised to produce vigorous plants that are more resistant to rust than older varieties. This cottage garden favourite is wonderful for adding height and drama to borders in late summer. Height: 1.8m (71”). Spread: 60cm (24”).
Culinary note: try crystallising the flowers for a tasty cake decoration, or use them to make a delicately flavoured syrup to use with puddings. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Sow on the surface of a good seed compost in spring/early summer. Make sure the compost is moist but not wet and seal in a polythene bag until after germination which usually takes 12-21 days at 15-21C (65-75F). Do not exclude light which is beneficial to germination. Transplant when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots and grow on in cooler conditions. Plant out 38cm (15in) apart in well cultivated garden soil and some shelter.
They can also be sown in mid summer in shallow drills, overwintered in a coldframe and planted out in spring 60cm (24in) apart. This produces larger plants and is recommended if the soil is heavy or badly drained.
