Plant Hollyhock Seed NOW for Summer Bloom ??

9 years ago

Hello...I am wondering.. if I plant hollyhock seeds now ( as opposed to spring ) will they flower in summer ?? Would it help if I put them in a cold frame ?? Any advice, tips, or experience is greatly appreciated, as I am brand new to plant propagation from seed... :)

Pixie, what zone are you in, how harsh is your winter weather. I think you can Fall sow hollyhock in about Zs 6-8. If you are colder than that, a cold frame might help....
