The Spring Celebrities White Hollyhock has stunning 3-inch wide white flowers that grow on tall, upright stems. This cultivar is a dwarf variety, but the stems will still reach up to 36 inches tall, making this perennial an excellent choice for a bed that needs some drama. Alcea rosea annua is a hardy plant that blooms from late spring until midsummer. Flowers near the bottom of the tall stalks bloom first, and buds continue to open in ascending order. The stems also feature bright green foliage.
Hollyhock is a perennial commonly found in traditional gardens. This dwarf variety will look charming in beds, borders, or mass plantings. Trim the stalk to use in an arrangement. The Spring Celebrities White Hollyhock is beautiful, easy to maintain, and grows as a perennial in USDA growing zones 6 through 8.
Spring Celebrities White Hollyhock Care
Keeping with this plant's easy-care vibe, Hollyhocks can live in full sun or partial shade. The ideal combination is morning sun and afternoon shade, especially when grown in warmer climates. Use rich, loamy soil that promotes drainage and water weekly or when the soil feels dry. Apply a balanced fertilizer each spring and by June switch to monthly applications of high-phosphorus fertilizer with a ratio like 10-30-20.
Trim the stalks back to 6 inches tall by late summer, after the flowers have faded. Place mulch around the base of the plant to protect the roots and help them overwinter.
Spring Celebrities White Hollyhock Spacing
This upright plant will grow 24 to 36 inches tall and spread 12 to 18 inches. Create a full planting by spacing these perennials 8 to 12 inches apart.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
