Poor old Sidalcea


Our Sidalcea flowered well initially but sadly they fell pray to our flower eating Roe Deer who nibbled a lot more flowers than just the Roses this year. 

Sidalcea or Prarie Mallows are heavy blooming, somewhat rare perennial mallows which produce bright, saucer-shaped flowers (which resemble hollyhocks) on long, slender stems. They attract butterflies and are excellent cut flowers. Sidalcea plants are true perennials that grow to 3 feet tall. Winter hardy to zone 5.
