Stately cypress trees are paired with charming hollyhocks in this traditional design seen in many variations of Greek folk embroidery. Native to the eastern Mediterranean, hollyhocks love the sun and this color palette of fresh greens, bright corals, pinks, and soft golds brings to mind a garden in full bloom.
