they had some in poundstertcher/instore the other day if that helps?

i have some black hollyhocks in my garden, they've not flowered yet, but if they do and i get seeds, you're more than welcome to some (ie don't hold your breath lol)

I have some saved from an unknown variety I'd almost forgotten about.

Saved at least from 2-3 yrs back from the 'parent' which I described on the envelope as 'Very frilly pale yellow parent'.

If you'd like say 20 seeds to try you're very welcome - just pm me and send a sae.

I can also repeat for others who may be interested - perhaps up to another 10 (@20 each) of you (that's just a quick glance?).

Have no idea if the seed is still viable - but its worth a shot if you want some for this year - and some folk have been very generous with their offers - its time for me to give back- even though I've only taken seed once!

Zoe - your seeds have been posted today.

Plenty left if anyone would like any - caveat emptor - as germination status unknown.

Perhaps Zoe - if you wouldn't mind reporting back in a coupe of weeks with success/failure and numbers?
