Yep, they look kind of ratty, but those in sheltered spots have a few blooms left.

These plants have the lovliest flowers, don't they ?! They bloom for what seems like forever...lol.

Thanks! Yes their blooming period lasted for months!! Much longer than my pink Malva. Flowers like this always make me think that someone took out a paintbrush and embelished with color.

Hi Charlieb, this plant is on my wish list and what a stunner it is. I bought a pot of Malva sylvestris 'Primley Blue' a couple of months ago but it has not flowered yet - I can't wait for next year.

Thanks Hw and Mw! Muddywalters, I started these indoors in March, and they bloomed in summer right through until this fall. You'll have to post photos of your 'Primley Blue' next summer.
