I don't know if it's normal hollie hock but it's how mine are. Waiting for some warmth perhaps.
In the sticks near Peterborough
They will zoom soon. They are not an early flowerer.
Mine are tiny too hollie - sown at end of March and still in kitchen. Only looking as if they've put on growth in the last week really. This is the first time I've sewn them early -usually just chuck them outside around this time of year!
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Hi Holly,
Why not try a little experiment and re-pot a few and see how they grow in comparison to the others. Just put them outside in a light warm spot under cover and see how they do?
I`ve got all of mine outside in a plastic growhouse and those that I potted on early, approx. a month ago are, between 6 and 9 inches high with a good spread now and doing pretty well. If you have plenty it`s always worth a go, good luck.
Hi Holly,
Try and choose a few with a little more growth and try them straight into 3 inch pots, keep them moist but not too wet and just see how they do, you have little to lose but could gain valuable knowledge for the future.
