ruffles on tall stalks

Hollyhocks. I knew them well in childhood, but rarely see them anywhere anymore. And a ruffled white one? Indescribably lovely!

A friend just sent me some hollyhock seeds, but I read they take 10 to 15 years to bloom. I dont know if I will last that long. :)

The words "grandma's garden" opened up a world... I suddenly remember my grandma's garden, she had daisies growing in the grass. Thanks for giving me that memory back this morning. Warm(!) hug from Holland, Marit
