Start Hollyhock seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost in your area. Follow the seed depth and spacing guidelines indicated below. Once all danger of frost has passed, seedlings should be hardened off before planting into their growing location. Seedlings should be transplanted according to the plant and row spacing directions below. Pick a location sheltered from the wind and receives at least 6 hours of sun per day. Regularly monitor your plants and ensure that the soil remains moist, but not soggy while they establish themselves in their new environment.

Suggestions
Growing Suggestions:
- Pinch out the growing tip immediately after transplanting to produce stocky, stronger plants.
- Plants will flower in the first year if seed is started indoors.
- Plants can become top-heavy once flower stalks develop and may require staking so the stalks do not bend or break when windy.
- Regularly removing spent flowers, known as deadheading will keep the plant tidy and may reward you with more blooms.
- Harvest when 1/2 the flowers on the stem are open. Click here to learn more about harvesting flowers.
