What customers say
Customers deeply admire the potential of 'Alcea rosea Chater's Double White,' praising the stunning, pure white, fully double blooms that create a dramatic garden accent. Initial plant quality upon arrival is frequently noted as robust and healthy, suggesting a strong start. However, overall enthusiasm is tempered by common hollyhock challenges. A significant theme involves establishment issues, particularly the biennial nature leading to first year bloom disappointment or failure to return. Furthermore, susceptibility to rust often diminishes the foliage health, causing frustration given the premium price. Value perception hinges entirely on successful blooming; gardeners who achieve the magnificent flowers feel the investment is worthwhile, while others struggle with maintenance demands and plant loss.
