Hollyhocks on the A2 at Canterbury

The last five years of sowing hollyhock seeds from the window of my car and from my bicycle on the overbridges is now beginning to take effect.

The central reservation on the A2 is showing results.

Right, is the dense garden which I created under the pedestrian overbridge at Bridge. The hollyhocks seem to have managed to suppress the other vegetation which was present.

Left, this display is a result of my return journey from the swimming pool. I threw the seeds from the car window.  You have to be careful otherwise they blow back inside the car. The pool closed three years ago.

So, as you drive around Canterbury on the A2, either going to, or coming from Dover, have a look out for my hollyhocks. My plan is for the flowers to be so successful that they spread all along the road. I think they look prettier than the scraggy stuff which usually grows there.
