I'm pretty sure that is, indeed, hollyhock. What makes you think it isn't?

Hollyhock. Not sure birds eat and poop out viable seeds, they're not berrylike.

Ph wow !! It doesn't look anything like my wife's holy hocks. Her flowers are pinkish but distinctly snow-ballish in geometry they don't have the bell shaped flowers at all.

Thanks
Mystery solved

Google up some hollyhock pictures. They come single and double. Pink,red,purple, white, yellow. And seed from one colour doesn't necessarily turn out the same as the parent. I've had seed from a yellow come out purple.
