    This is one I grew from seeds marked as wild Geranium. Maybe it's a weed, but I think it is pretty. LOL The plant gets about three feet tall and nearly as wide. The flowers are pale lavender and about an inch in diameter.

    Baa is spot on.

    thats twice, on DG, this plant has been supplied as a Geranium which isnt very fair on the person receiving it.

    Hey, that is okay, because I didn't have it already. LOL But now that brings up more questions. I have another plant labeled as either marsh mallow or or musk mallow, also grown from seed. I guess I will post it next. Thanks you two! :)
