Definitely not Hollyhocks. Do a Google search.
Those look a little like Portulaca, but a bit tall.
============
Yes, the leaves seem very wrong for Malvaceae. The only Portulaca I
myself have seen had fleshy (succulent) leaves. This plant is just way
out of my scope, but maybe what about Godetia, I wonder.
But then whatta wino.
I agree with Godetia (Clarkia amoena).
