Malva alcea fastigiata

This big, bushy plant is a treasure for the midsummer garden, where its soft pink blooms on 3–4′ stems make a handsome display from July–October. The plants form thick crowns from which grow as many as 50 stems, each covered with dozens of small blooms above intricately lobed foliage. This is a plant that can carry a summer border all by itself.

HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone.
