Alcea rosea Spotlight ‘Radiant Rose’
Alcea rosea Spotlight 'Radiant Rose' is a hollyhock with large, old-fashioned, single rosy-pink flowers with bright yellow eyes.
Alcea rosea ‘Radiant Rose’ is a new take on an old garden classic. From the Spotlight series, this hollyhock will shine with large, old-fashioned, single, rosy-pink flowers with darker pink and yellow centres on tall spikes over a low mound of foliage. A true perennial and superior cultivar all around. Easy to grow in a variety of soils including seasonally dry sites but hollyhocks really perform best in rich, loamy soil with good moisture. Use in the border and in large containers. Pollinator attractor. Rabbit resistant.
