Very pretty, June. It seems to have found its happy spot. Thumbs up


I tried two different plantings of Current-leaf globe-mallow (Sphaeralcea grossulariifolia) last season; one in our clay soil in a dry bed, and one in a medium-sized basket container. The garden plant did bloom, but it looked fairly weak and spindly overall. The potted plant (topped with aquarium gravel) didn't bloom, but looks like a much sturdier plant. I'd be surprised if the in-ground plant returns, but feel pretty confident that the other one will.
