Malva Sylvestris – Zebrina also known as the Striped Mallow is a plant you will want to add to your garden if you are wanting that wow factor! It has spires of striped, raspberry-pink flowers with deep maroon veins that look like pinwheels. It forms an upright, bushy mound that you may end up needing to stake if you grow the plant in rich soil. It has a blooming season ranging from mid-Summer to mid Fall, grows best in full sun with well-drained soil, and will grow between 24-48 inches tall. These flowers will attract pollinators to your garden such as Hummingbirds, Butterflies, and are truly loved by the Bees while being resistant to Deer and Rabbits. These make great cut flowers, do well in containers, and also in borders in the garden.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
