Malva moschata Malvaceae
Musk Mallow
Published 1991
CULTIVATION The musk mallow is a semi-evergreen perennial with slightly aromatic, feathery, bright green leaves and white or rose-coloured flowers from midsummer. Reaching 60cm 1m (2-3ft), it prefers well-drained, poor soil and full sun. Propagate it by sowing seeds or taking stem cuttings in the spring, planting them 60cm (2ft) apart. Harvest the leaves and flowers at any time. A very pretty garden and border herb.
