Raspberry Hollyhocks

I am doing a series of hollyhocks.  Our neighbourhood is older, with lots of quaint homes from the early 1900's, and these older homes usually have a grouping or two of hollyhocks growing somewhere.  I read that the flowers are edible, wouldn't that be a colourful addition to a salad!  I wonder if the raspberry hollyhocks taste like raspberries?

Enjoy...
