Pink mallow (wild variety)

Popping up all over the garden. I feel another cull coming on!

Love this …. I only have the white variety (Malva moschata alba) but love it when it self seeds.

Yes, ladies, this one is rather exuberant. I shall keep some to seed but definitely not all of it!

Yes it can be a nuisance, I've tried getting rid of mine and have had a degree of success but it still pops up in some places. I like it though, and wish it would behave.

Yes, Hywel, some degree of refereeing is required! Sheila gave me seed for a white form which I shall sow this autumn. I think I shall like the white form more as this is quite lilacy - not my favourite colour, really.

I have them both but the pink one is more prevalent.

Thaks, Janey. I'm just about to start pulling it out before it seeds..
