Hollyhock ‘Chater’s Mix’
Botanical Name: Alcea rosea
Type: Hardy Biennial (often flowers in the second year; may act as a short-lived perennial)

Hollyhock ‘Chater’s Mix’ is a stately, cottage garden favourite, producing tall spikes smothered in large, fully double blooms that resemble ruffled peonies. This traditional mix features a rich blend of colours — including deep reds, pinks, yellows, white, and purples — creating a dramatic vertical accent at the back of borders, along fences, or against sunny walls. A magnet for bees and butterflies, it brings old-fashioned charm and long-lasting summer colour to any garden.
