Lavatera Trimestris, rose mallow - Loveliness / Salmon Beauty

£1.49

Classic traditional cultivar with large bright deep-rose hibiscus-like flowers on 1m tall plants. 

Commonly grown as ornamental flowers. Bees love the flowers.

An easily grown plant, succeeding in any ordinary garden soil. Prefers a light well-drained moderately fertile soil in full sun. A soil that is too rich encourages foliar growth at the expense of flowering. Tolerates maritime exposure. Succeeds in dry soils. Plants are moderately fast-growing.

A very ornamental plant. The cut flowers last a long time in water.

A good bee plant.

Sow in situ in the spring. Germination should take place within a few weeks.

 Edible uses
