What is this plant? (Miniature Hollyhock)

RE: What is this plant? (Miniature Hollyhock) By Barbara (Guest Post) My cousin sent me seeds to plant and this is the same plant that grew for me in Alabama. I asked her and she said she thought it was some sort of hollyhock (miniature) maybe with a name of Melva or Melba? Don't really know.

I'm PRETTY SURE OF IT BECAUSE MY MOM HAS HUNDREDS OF THESE IN A VARIETY OF COLORS. Posted on 09/28/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Is this a Geranium? By dragonsue (25) Contact It looks like a pelargonium to me, which, I have been told, is the Rolls Royce of Geraniums, but I'd have to see the flowers a little clearer. Are they bell shaped, with a dark inner ring surrounding an almost white center? Posted on 09/28/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Is this a Geranium? By BSL (1) Profile Contact This looks like a Hardy Geranium to me. I had these around my house when we lived in the city. They spread and come back every year. Very dainty and pretty I think.

By shishi (38) Profile Contact Mallow was my first thought, also. Buying a well illustrated perennial book is a good idea, too. I use mine all the time, even after 26 years of gardening. You can also google the flower name you need info on, and go from there. Look up "mallow plant," for instance. The mallow is related to hollyhock.

By LITTLE SUZY (334) Profile Contact Which plant do you mean? The green one with old dried stems sticking up? That looks like a coral bells to me. Oh you mean the big one to the right? Don't know. Gotta see the flower closer up. You need to purchase a garden book with lots of pictures of perennials. Good luck! Posted on 09/24/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse
