Alcea rosea 'Radiant Rose' is a new take on an old garden classic. From the Spotlight series, this hollyhock will shine with large, old-fashioned, single, rosy-pink flowers with darker pink and yellow centres on tall spikes over a low mound of foliage. A true perennial and superior cultivar all around. Easy to grow in a variety of soils including seasonally dry sites but hollyhocks really perform best in rich, loamy soil with good moisture.
