Malva sylvestris 'Zebrina'
A charming cottage garden favourite, Zebrina Mallow produces masses of delicate mauve-pink flowers beautifully striped with deep purple veins. Blooming continuously from early summer through to autumn, this elegant variety adds height, colour and a wonderfully natural feel to borders and wildlife gardens.
 
The open flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinators, while the tall stems weave effortlessly through perennial planting schemes, creating a relaxed, romantic display.
Easy to grow and often self-seeding gently around the garden, Zebrina is perfect for cottage gardens, wildflower-style borders and informal planting schemes.
