Alcea rosea 'Peaches & Dreams' - 2026

Alcea rosea 'Peaches & Dreams' is a charming hollyhock cultivar known for its tall, elegant stems bearing large, fully double, soft peach-coloured flowers that bring a warm, romantic touch to summer gardens. Blooming from mid-summer to early autumn, the flowers can reach up to 10 cm across, providing a striking vertical accent in borders, cottage gardens, or against walls and fences. Its abundant blooms attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, enhancing garden biodiversity while offering long-lasting colour throughout the season. Hollyhocks are easy to grow from seed or young plants and can self-seed in favourable conditions, ensuring continuity year after year. Deadheading spent flowers and staking the stems in exposed areas supports vigorous growth and maintains an impressive display.
