Wayside Hollyhocks transported

These colourful Hollyhocks grow by the roadside in Vaucluse where we were on holiday. Last year I brought some seed home and I now have a little patch in my garden where there is the constant buzz of bees. They range from white through shades of pink, appear delicate but withstand the electrical storms in France, and just add a spot of colour and insect life to my front garden.
