Native to the NW United States, sidalcea produces flowers that look like miniature hollyhocks. The soft pink, 1.5" wide saucer-shaped flowers are held vertically against the flower spikes.
Sidalcea is a natural choice for cottage gardens or wildflower meadows. They should be planted in groups of 3 or more to make the most visual impact.
