Alcea heldreichii is a hollyhock plant native to southwestern Europe and Turkey.

It has narrow stems (10 millimetres (0.39 in)), with dense star-like (stellate) hairs.

Alcea heldreichii may be found at roadsides, rocky slopes, steppe, and open areas of forest.

The epicalyx is small (<50% calyx), and its fruit segments are winged, shallowly furrowed, and stellate-pilose hairy on dorsal and lateral sides.
