Biennial Black Hollyhock 15 Seeds for $1.50 From my garden to yours! Alcea rosea ‘Nigra’ is a full sun lover, grows 4-6 feet tall, and 2 feet wide. Perfect for cottage and goth gardens for a dramatic summer bloom. These can be planted in the fall or spring and can be cold stratified for 4-5 weeks in your refrigerator to help germinate, but it’s not necessary. Soil should be around 55°-60°F. When planting, press seeds 1/4 of an inch deep then lightly rub the soil to cover them, and water thoroughly; takes about 10-12 days for germination. In my experience, hollyhocks don’t transfer well once getting established so if you’re planning on starting them ahead of time and not directly sowing into your garden, I’d suggest starting them in a biodegradable pot such as CowPots™ to then transfer to your garden.
