Yep, they are in bloom. They surprise me every year. This summer, they are mostly shades of pale pink and peach. There is one dark red and one or two white.
Appears these two are taking turns.
The bumblebees were loving these hollyhocks, there were hundreds of them.
They didn't seem to mind me snapping photos this morning.
uh! I am not immune from Hollyhock rust either.
I love this study of white and green, so cool and soothing.
This week I am joining in on these parties

They look so lovely. I think I may need to add some in my yard.
Thanks for the reminder to plant Hollyhocks! I've never had any but think since my name is Holly that I should! ♥
Wish I had some. They are so pretty.
Next year perhaps.

I love hollyhocks. They add so much character to a garden. Your hollyhocks are gorgeous!
Oh I love hollyhocks, your photos are stunning
L-O-V-E your hollyhocks! They are very pretty! How awesome!
Deb :)
I also love hollyhockes and have a lovely peach one that comes each year. Unfortunately this year it seems to be bothered by something and the flowers are stunted. Not sure what it is.
Hi Debbi,
I love hollyhocks ... sadly I don't have any in my yard! :( Your hollyhocks are stunning!
Blessings,

The hollyhock pictures are very nice! I love those flowers, too, but mine look scraggly in no time! Yes, the white and greens are very soothing. I popped over from Bloomin' Tuesday.
Your hollyhocks are beautiful. Love the ammi majus or Queen Anne's lace along with them - what a nice contrast!
I've always LOVED hollyhocks, but never have been able to grow them, and it's always so disappointing. Your photos are wonderful ... especially like the pink blooms :)
Debbi, your hollyhocks are beautiful! Thank you for sharing. You are one of the features today at the Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House! Pop on in and grab a feature button. Hope to see your prettiness again today at the bash! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
Hi Debbie, I'm visiting from Make it Pretty Monday. Your hollyhocks are beautiful. I have three large plants, the first year they were good, even had a black one, last year and this year they got as tall and formed buds but then buds just dried up and didn't open. Any suggestions? since your's seem to do well..Happy Monday..Judy
