(Hollyhock) Vibrant color and compact form make Alcea Fiesta Time a standout choice for anyone who loves the old-fashioned charm of hollyhocks without the towering height. This hardy perennial produces stunning fully double, rose-pink blooms with ruffled petals that resemble miniature carnations. The flowers cover sturdy, upright stems from mid to late summer, creating a showy vertical accent that draws in bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Reaching about 3 feet tall and 18–24 inches wide, Fiesta Time fits beautifully into smaller gardens, cottage-style borders, and even containers. Unlike traditional hollyhocks that can become leggy or require staking, this compact variety maintains a bushy, self-supporting habit that stays neat all season. Its deep green foliage forms a lush base that complements the brilliant blooms perfectly. Hardy in Zones 3–9, Alcea Fiesta Time thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It’s relatively low maintenance, deer resistant, and performs best with regular watering and deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. With its cheerful color, pollinator-friendly blooms, and easy-care nature, Alcea Fiesta Time brings a burst of cottage garden charm and reliable summer performance to any sunny spot in the landscape.
