These sturdy, stately, and classic plants bloom throughout the entire summer and are known to attract hummingbirds and butterflies. They are also winter hardy to zone 3 and typically reseed and return year after year.\u003cbr\u003eGreat easy to grow plant for height and drama. Tall flower spikes are great against a fence, wall or back border. The dark almost black flowers offer a good contrast and make an unusual plant. Can tolerate most soil types and needs only moderate water but must have good \u003cbr\u003esunshine. Deer don't eat it, neither do rabbits. Butterflies love it.\u003cbr\u003eFlowers from seed second year, may live for several years or may behave as a biannual. This is not predictable some plants may live and other from the same seed batch may not.\u003cbr\u003eDescription.\u003cbr\u003eA short lived perennial that sometimes acts like a biennial it is hardy zone 2-9. \u003cbr\u003eIN early spring a small rosette of generally heart shaped mid green leaves arises. Leaves have lobed edges and rough texture with strongly defined veins. In mid spring it sends up a tall flower spike that can reach 8 feet in height but is more commonly between 4-6 feet. Each stem can produce dozens of large cup shaped dark maroon almost black flowers 3-4\" across that are set amongst smaller rough leaves. Flowers are produced a few at a time along the stem and flowering can last for several months. Blooms second year from seed. Sometimes plants die after blooming but many can live for several years and perform well as short lived perennials.\u003cbr\u003eLocation and Care.\u003cbr\u003eHollyhocks need full sun but are very tolerant of soil type and can easily grow on very poor soil, in fact they prefer a poorer soil and produce better flowers than on rich soils. Must be fairly well drained cannot tolerate waterlogged soils or those that become waterlogged in the winter months. pH should be in generally neutral range although a little acid or alkaline is tolerated it will not grow in soils that are very strongly one of the other.\u003cbr\u003eGrow in a sheltered site as the flower stalks are long and can be blown over in high winds. Up against a fence, wall or side of a building is excellent. IN hotter climates - zones 8 -9 shelter from the heat, try growing on the north side of structures to help keep them cool in the heat of the summer. Staking may be necessary as stalks grow taller or they can bend and droop over. Plants can be pinched out as they begin to form stalks to encourage them to branch. This will produce more stalks of shorter height and thus more flowers.\u003cbr\u003eWater daily until established then as needed during the summer months. If there is sufficient rain no other watering is necessary but if on sandy or loam soils a small daily watering can be helpful. Soaker hoses around the base of the plants are ideal.\u003cbr\u003eHollyhocks are one of the few plants that can grow beneath black walnut trees as they can resist the toxins that the tree produces.\u003cbr\u003ePlants can become quite large so space at least 24-36\" apart. \u003cbr\u003eMulch with at least 4\" of material in late fall to protect for the winter. Remove in early spring to allow leaves to form early. Deer resistant.\u003cbr\u003eGrowing.\u003cbr\u003eSeeds need some light to germinate so surface sow. Outdoors seeds can be sown two weeks before last frost date. Surface sow in desired location. Seeds can also be sown in fall for early spring germination.\u003cbr\u003eIndoors sow 6-8 weeks before last frost date. Surface sow on compost. Germination can be anywhere from 12-21 days depending on temperature and other conditions. Keep soil moist but not wet. Don't use an overly rich potting soil as it can encourage damping off. Since seeds are large sowing 1-2 in individual pots is the best method of sowing. Separate seedlings when large enough to handle and grow on until at least 6\" tall before gradually hardening off to outside before transplanting.\u003cbr\u003eProblems\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately Japanese beetles also like hollyhocks so do spider mites the later mostly because they are growing in hot dry areas which spider mites love. Spray with light misting of water to deter spider mites. Foliage is also susceptible to rust especially as the year progresses this does not tend to affect the flowers or the flowering habit of the plant.\u003cbr\u003eEdible uses.\u003cbr\u003eThe flowers leaves and roots are edible. Young leaves can be chopped and used in salads older leaves have unpleasant texture which most people dislike. Flowers and flower buds are also good in salads.\u003cbr\u003eMedicinal uses.\u003cbr\u003eBlack hollyhock flowers have long been used in herbal medicine (but not other flower colors). Dried flowers are used as a tea to treat chest complaints, improve blood circulation and for the treatment of constipation, dysmenorrhoea, hemorrhage. The root is astringent and demulcent[240]. It is crushed and applied as a poultice to ulcers[218].

Plants are vigorous, productive and begin to bear fruits in 70 days after planting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterials: pies instead of pumpkins,garden,heirloom,Squash,Winter,Edible bottle gourd,Asian vegetable \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(65, 168, 95);\"\u003eSelect your desired size and color from the available option\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"CARIBBEAN GARDEN SEED","offers":[{"title":"25 Seeds","offer_id":28443295697,"sku":"P21836S","price":3.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Packet-40 Seeds","offer_id":28443295761,"sku":"P21837S","price":4.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Seeds","offer_id":28443295825,"sku":"P21838S","price":7.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/5071\/files\/28395725226170.jpg?v=1759505294"},{"product_id":"indian-strawberry-seeds-perennial-groundcover","title":"Indian Strawberry seeds, PERENNIAL GROUNDCOVER","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrawberry Seeds - Indian ,Mock strawberry,  (Duchesnea Indica Tuttifrutti) ,\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuchesnea indica, known commonly as mock strawberry, Gurbir, Indian strawberry or false strawberry, has foliage and an aggregate accessory fruit similar to true strawberry, though this is apparently an independent evolution of a similar fruit type.\u003cbr\u003eIndian Strawberry (Duchesnea Indica Tuttifrutti) - Start Strawberry seeds for this rare ground cover plant that will get lots of attention! It is an Indian Strawberry plant with lovely yellow blooms, and it produces small red Strawberries all summer long on a creeping evergreen carpet. Indian Strawberry is well-suited for hanging over a wall or as a ground cover plant. Indian Strawberry ground cover is naturalized throughout the United States, and it is found growing in shady places in woods and grassy slopes. Indian Strawberry prefers a moist, but well-drained soil in a partially sunny position. Once Indian Strawberry plants are established, the matted root sends out runners to set new plants. Indian Strawberry leaves are light green and finely haired. Indian Strawberry flowers are small, yellow, and are 5 petaled. They first appear in April and will bloom throughout the summer until fall. The fruit is small, about 1\/2 inch round. It is edible, but many say the taste is not noteworthy. Birds, however, love the red fruit. Another common name for this variety is Mock Strawberry ground cover.\u003cbr\u003eSow Indian Strawberry seeds from January to April indoors. Use quality seed starter mix, and small pots or starter trays. Sow the Strawberry seeds on the surface and press the seed into the mix. Keep the soil damp but not wet, and protect the Indian Strawberry ground cover seeds from direct light. Seal the starter tray or pots inside a plastic bag until after germination. When the Strawberry seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into 3 inch pots, and grow them on in cooler conditions until large enough to plant outdoors. After all danger of frost has passed, harden the young Mock Strawberry plant over a period of 7 - 10 days before planting outdoors in its permanent location.\u003cbr\u003eGroundcover Specifications\u003cbr\u003eSeason: Perennial\u003cbr\u003eUSDA Zones: 4 - 8\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 4 inches\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 9 inches\u003cbr\u003eBloom Season: Late spring to early summer\u003cbr\u003eBloom Color: Yellow with red fruits\u003cbr\u003eGrowth Rate: Fast\u003cbr\u003eEnvironment: Partial shade\u003cbr\u003eFoot Traffic: No\u003cbr\u003ePlanting Directions\u003cbr\u003eTemperature: Lower temperatures of less than 41F are very effective\u003cbr\u003eAverage Germ Time: 42 - 54 days\u003cbr\u003eLight Required: No. Do no leave in direct sunlight\u003cbr\u003eDepth: Do not cover seed, but press tightly in to soil\u003cbr\u003eSoil Type: Well-drained soils, pH 5.8 - 7.2\u003cbr\u003eSowing Rate: 4 - 5 seeds per cell or approximately 5000 seeds covers 100 square feet\u003cbr\u003eMoisture: Constant moisture must be maintained until all germination occurs\u003cbr\u003ePlant Spacing: 18 inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(65, 168, 95);\"\u003eSelect your desired size and color from the available option\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"CARIBBEAN GARDEN SEED","offers":[{"title":"1 packet-100 Seeds","offer_id":28443747857,"sku":"P13666S","price":3.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"300 Seeds-Bulk","offer_id":28443747921,"sku":"P13667S","price":5.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 Seeds-Bulk","offer_id":28443747985,"sku":"P13668S","price":8.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/5071\/files\/28395437686970.jpg?v=1759506258"},{"product_id":"tamarind-seeds-tamarindus-indica-sampalok-indian-date-tropical-fruit","title":"Tamarind SEEDs,TAMARINDUS INDICA,Sampalok,Indian Date  !

The tamarind tree produces edible, pod-like fruit which are used extensively in cuisines around the world. Other uses include traditional medicines and metal polishes.

Inconspicuous amongst the mass of foliage, they are found, on close examination to have an unexpected beauty. Each flower is rather more than one inch across and the four creamy or yellow sepals spread to the full width, appearing more like petals. The actual petals are three in number, one being smaller. They, also, are creamy or yellow but are covered with a fine net-work of deep red veining; the edges are closely pleated. Three green stamens and one long pistil curve from the centre. Before starting to open the buds are enclosed in two sheaths, often crimson in color and these make a pretty variation on the flower sprays. The pods, which are usually fairly numerous, vary considerably in size and shape. Many are sickle-shaped, some like long, thick beans and others nearly as short as their breadth. They are at first green, but a dun, felt-like film over the green makes them, appear brownish. When ripe they are buff and brittle. The seeds, from one to ten, are contained in a fibrous pulp and the pod is more or less constricted between these seeds. In some varieties of Tamarind the pulp is brown and acid, in others it is sweet but the best is considered to be the one with reddish pulp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"5\" style=\"font-size: 11px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, 'MS Sans Serif', sans-serif; line-height: 1.5; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(238, 238, 238);\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr style=\"font-size: 8pt; line-height: 1.5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"font-size: 8pt; line-height: 1.5;\"\u003eThere are many uses to which the fruit is put.

The seeds, ground to powder and boiled to a paste with gum, make a strong cement; from them, too, is obtained a substitute for wheat or other flour, used by jungle people to make chapattis. The husks of the seeds have even been employed for road surfacing.

The plant features scalloped, inch-long leaves, small pinkish flowers, and measures 8 inches tall by about 3 feet wide. It thrives in boglike conditions, making it an ideal choice for gardens with moist soil and a lack of strong, direct sunlight. Gotu kola is also tolerant of most soil types, including clay, sand and loam.

Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Transplant in late spring\/early summer in a very warm and sunny location (soil temperatures at least above 60Â°F). Fertilize as needed. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruits. Harvest the green fruits directly from the plant.

Also, remember they like heat to germinate so make sure you have a heating mat or something to keep the soil warm.
