It could be a mallow, it will be fairly free in seeding.

Spelling, Doctorbob! It could be a Mallow. Makes it more difficult to Google if the spelling's wrong.

So is this Malva moschata 'Rosea'??? It does look like my white one. I agree about the self-seeding - I potted a lot up and sold them on my plant stall!!!! :-))))

Doctorbob Hi haven't heard from you in a while. Hope your well? Mallow ok thanks I will look it up. It is pretty lovely shade of pink.
Hi Spritz and Beattie don't wanna leave you out. Spritz your suggestion sounds a bit excotic. What a lovely name.

Well - you know me and latin names! It does help to 'pin down' a plant, and I think yours is really pretty. :-))
