have been watching these Leaves.  At the edge,  just behind the wall garden,  up there,  with the Grass people i didn't pull.   Big leaves.  Alyssia kept saying,  I wonder what that is?  and i kept saying i don't know,  but sure looks like a Hollyhock.  

it couldn't possibly be a Hollyhock.  But it sure looked like a hollyhock.  One hollyhock.  Singular.  A hollyhock.  How could this possibly BE?   I have watched what appeared to be buds for days now.   Every time i give water.  Stand and look.

Today…..a bloom.  And

it's a Hollyhock.

it's a Hollyhock.  Here.  In the middle of a sort of nowhere.  

in New Mex i had hollyhocks from seeds i stoled from Georgia OKeefe's garden at Ghost Ranch.

Here…there are many flowers and plants and bushes and trees…California…but i don't see Hollyhocks….like in N Mex.

But it's for REAL.  It's a hollyhock.

I don't know what to think.

    Ah yes, the deer. They came and ate all the rose buds off my roses. And the roses were looking so very healthy this year. Gone.

    A long time ago, someone in this group sent me some seeds, hollyhock among them. More than I could use. Planted beside your iris, but something causes the leaves to spot all rusted and fail to thrive every year. I need to relocate them, Iris and Hollyhock.
    Your’s must have been a bird contribution, flying over, pooping.
