Mallow Musk (Rosea) Seeds
$3.90
Unit price perMalva moschata rosea
Musk Mallow ‘Rosea’ is a charming, hardy perennial producing masses of soft rose-pink flowers above finely divided, aromatic foliage. The open, five-petalled blooms appear over a long flowering period and bring a relaxed, old-fashioned feel to cottage gardens, wildflower plantings and perennial borders.
Growing into a bushy clump, Musk Mallow is attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects and makes a lovely addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. The flowers and young leaves are also edible, with the leaves having the mild, mucilaginous quality characteristic of plants in the mallow family.
Easy to grow and relatively low maintenance once established, plants prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Regular deadheading can encourage continued flowering, or allow some seed heads to mature for natural self-seeding.

FLOWER SEEDS WITH EDEN
Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
