Malva sylvestris 'Zebrina' is an old fashion flower and is great for Cottage Gardens. Malva also goes by the common names of Hollyhock and Mallow. This perennial Malva is easy to grow in full sun and well drained soil. Plants will flower the first year from seed if started in late winter. Each seed packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.
Zebra Mallow is hardy in zones 5-9. It is a perennial and grows 3-4 ft. tall by 2 ft. wide. The plant will grow in partial shade but may be leggy. The flower stalks rise from the dark green clump of foliage and are lined with the small purple veined flowers.
Malva 'Zebrina' is a quintessential cottage garden flower. I use this plant in my informal natural style garden. It is a great weaver in between established plantings. The colorful flower spike rise up and add color while other perennials are resting. In my zone 6 garden it begins blooming in May and continues throughout the summer if dead headed.
This listing is for 35+ seeds fresh from this year's garden. Seeds are packed in recycled kraft paper envelopes. All seed orders come with complete growing instructions.
