Hosta in bloom, Kingston, Ontario, Canada
Black Hollyhocks are actually dark purple, but look black in low light. The thing about Hollyhocks is their vulnerability to rust. It’s next to impossible to prevent rust. The plants will still bloom, but to keep them looking decent in the garden, leaves must be removed on a regular basis.

Front yard Raspberries… a bowl full every day.
