Lavatera ‘Barnsley Baby’


Tree Mallow

USDA Zone: 6-9

Plant number: 1.316.110


Tree Mallows are terrific for summer and autumn display. This selection forms a midsized bush of maple-shaped grey-green leaves. White hollyhock-type flowers have a small red eye, beginning in early summer and continuing for months. Cut back hard to 8 – 12 inches in spring to maintain a nice, bushy habit. Outstanding in containers. Sometimes hardy in colder regions with sufficient winter mulching. USPP#14163, CPBR#3228: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
