Hollyhock Queeny Purple

2004 AAS Flower Winner

Queeny Purple is the shortest Alcea rosea and the first purple hollyhock available as a single color not part of a mixture. These unique traits combined with season-long flower color resulted in Queeny Purple winning an AAS Award. The frilly edged blooms are a “powder puff” type having a cushion center. They measure 3 to 4 inches and are produced abundantly on the compact branching plants. Queeny Purple plants will reach a mature height of 20 to 30 inches, perfect for smaller space gardens. Queeny Purple is an annual that will flower prolifically the first year from a February or March sowing.
