Last Summer when my Mom's house sold we frantically packed everything and moved it out. It was a whirlwind ordeal. The house sold in three days.
My Mom had passed away the year before, but with probate we had to wait to sell the house.
So as I was taking a last look around the yard I saw some volunteer hollyhock seedlings popping up here and there.
I dug them up and transplanted them at my house.
Two survived.
At the same time I also gathered seeds from the dead hollyhock plants. I decided now was a good time to try and germinate some.
So far one has.

I am still excited that one has. I hope more do but I am happy I have at least one.
No telling how long the seeds had hung on the dead hollyhock plants.
I will be happy to see them bloom.
My Mom loved hollyhocks and so do I.
It will be a nice surprise to see what color they are. A sort of last gift from my Mom.

I will keep you posted of the progress of them.
Happy Monday!
