hollyhocks











Hollyhocks galore on the south side of our home. I read once that in Victorian days, ladies planted hollyhocks around the outhouse to mask it. Then when needing the outhouse, it was more genteel to say, "I'm going to look at the hollyhocks."
Come look at my hollyhocks anytime. Bathroom inside. :)

    I love hollyhocks! I didn't know you had some. My mom said when she was a little girl she'd play doll with them. Put a clothes pin on the with the flower being the dress hanging down.
