Hollyhocks Black Watchman Seed

This beautiful heirloom variety, grown by Thomas Jefferson at his Monticello estate, has been carefully reselected for us by the best Dutch seedsmen for classic form and rich colour. The big 3-4" hibiscus like blossoms have satiny petals in a wonderful deep dark maroon that shades to pure black. Black Watchman's blooms unfurl slowly on sturdy tall 5-7' stalks and make a singular and striking garden display, setting off all the other flowers around them.
