Hollyhock Memories

 


While I was growing up in Valley Stream, Long Island we always had a beautiful flowering garden in our backyard. There were roses, lilacs, daffodils, iris, bridal veil and always....hollyhocks. These stately perennials are really beautiful to see, tall, graceful and filled with blooms. Since my mother passed away I wanted to honor her memory by planting a hollyhock in our yard in Suffolk County. It flourished and gave me some fond memories when I looked at it. Before we moved south I took photos enabling me to have a painted memory.
