Description

Alcea rosea (common hollyhock) is an ornamental plant in the Malvaceae family. It was imported into Europe from southwestern China during, or possibly before, the 15th century. William Turner, a herbalist of the time, gave it the name "holyoke" from which the English name derives. Alcea rosea is variously described as a biennial (having a two-year life cycle), as an annual, or as a short-lived perennial.
