I have been so excited about seeing a Hollyhock growing in our garden. I have had to be patient, as I had no idea what color was going to appear. Lo and behold it is Pink. One of my top favorite colors.
Pink represents to me purity and innocence. It reminds me of the softness of a newborns skin. Tiny fingers and tiny toes. The sweetness of a baby wrapped up in a soft flannel blanket and the smell of baby powder. Pink..fragile and delicate.
Clothe me today in Pink, may there be a sweet fragrance of humility and gentleness towards humanity,not harsh and demanding. Thank you.. Pink, for reminding me of what I want to be…

Did you make dolls with your hollyhocks when you were a girl? I did – and I named them! They were almost as much fun as hats made from rhubarb leaves!

We had mainly cholla cactus, palm trees and oleanders growing up. I did not learn about hollyhocks until later in life. I love them and all colors. How fun that must have been…
