The Hollyhock is not only lovely and showy, but is also well established in folk medicine, and are easy additions to your garden.
Hollyhocks are widely used for tea (made from the flowers) which, it is said, helps soothe inflammation in the mouth and throat. A fomentation or vapor bath of the tea may be helpful for earache. A poultice applied to wasp or bee stings, or to draw out thorns, and splinters. Hollyhock flowers are used as an ingredient in various cosmetics.
The fresh flowers of the hollyhock were considered a culinary delicacy in old China. The dried flowers were much used as a tea by women in England and New England settlements where every household had its stand of hollyhocks.
