I seriously considered buying something similar down in Paseo this spring; glad I didn't because I would have been really disappointed in it once I saw yours.

They'd always start out like a house afire but were afflicted with some sort of rust or other pest that killed 'em off about a week after they began blooming. Every single danged year... for ten years. I tried everything known to man and eight garden centers and never figgered out what it was. Yet they always came back. Go figger.<br /><br />They were pretty while they lasted, tho.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-42269279965096664342010-06-07T15:43:59.616-05:002010-06-07T15:43:59.616-05:00Love the hollyhocks they are great, I like the pop...Love the hollyhocks they are great, I like the poppies also.
