Yes you can plant the holly hock seed now & transplant them when they get about 6 inches tall. Keep damp when not raining. You will be proud. Some do not bloom first year. They reseed every year after they bloom, you can also transplant them & you can save the seed when the pod gets dry, just before the seed falls out, good luck.

RE: Planting Holly Hock Seeds
My Mom lives in Texas and plants her Hollyhock seeds in the fall as does my Mom-in-law in Missouri. Each year, they should come back from the seeds that drop in the fall from the plants.
Hope you have great luck with the old fashioned favorites!
