Lavatera (Rose Mallow)
Pink Blush

Lavatera is a plant that deserves more attention in the garden in my opinion. This variety is loaded with Hibiscus-style blooms in a sweet shade of pink, accented by deeper pink veining. I really love them in their various stages of unfurling. Unlike most annuals, Lavatera grows more like a bush, making it a substantial presence in the garden. In maritime climates, this versatile plant in the Mallow family can even behave as a short-lived perennial. A great pollinator plant.
