Hollyhocks

I got a load of hollyhock seeds last year and only this one has grown into a proper plant. It's a lovely delicate pink so perhaps I'll try to grow afew more from this one. Hopefully it'll be gardening weather this weekend for a bit of a potter, although I'll have to navigate the big hole in the patio where they are replacing all the gas pipes. I'll also be watching the final stages of the Tour de France, which barring incident Chris Froome should win again. But as he says, it's not won until you cross the line in Paris. He fell off today so it's not signed and sealed yet.
