Description
Alcea rosea (common hollyhock) is an ornamental plant in the Malvaceae family. It was imported into Europe from southwestern China during, or possibly before, the 15th century. William Turner, a herbalist of the time, gave it the name "holyoke" from which the English name derives.

O puissante rose trémière, si tu offres ta gloire au temple, emporte-moi dans tes pétales, moi, la jeune abeille turquoise !
C'est un poème de Tsangyang Gyatso, sixième dalaï-lama, qui compare sa bien-aimée à une rose trémière... Magnifique capture !!
