Hollyhock, locally known as Gurbo or Chitra Seavati are tall and elegant flowering plants that produce large, showy flowers in a wide range of colors, including shades of pink, red, yellow, white, and purple. The flowers have a distinctive hollyhock shape with multiple layers of petals. The plant adds vertical interest to gardens and provides a stunning backdrop in borders and cottage-style landscapes. It thrives temperate to cool climates. They are typically grown as biennials, meaning they complete their life cycle over two years, producing flowers in the second year after sowing the seeds.
