Hollyhock ‘Happy Lights’
Approx. 50 seeds. A true cottage‑garden classic, hollyhocks bring height, movement and drama to summer borders — and ‘Happy Lights’ does it with joyful colour. Tall, upright spikes are packed with large, open blooms in vibrant shades of pink and red, each with a bright yellow centre. At the base, a clump of broad, mid‑green leaves anchors the plant and gives that unmistakable hollyhock silhouette.
Perfect for the back of borders, along fences or beside sheds, this variety reaches around 5ft — often more — creating a strong vertical accent in cottage‑style planting. Flowering from midsummer into early autumn, hollyhocks are excellent for wildlife‑friendly gardens, offering nectar to bees and other pollinators throughout the season.
