Perennials: Sphaeralcea incana

description for "Perennials: Sphaeralcea incana"

Not to many plants thrive in poor soil and show amazing color, however, Orange Globe Mallow is one plant that does. With long wands of orange flowers, this deeply rooted wildflower thrives in heavy clay and other poor soils. If planted in the garden, it works well as a border or accent plant. Its heighth will allow underplantings of lower growing and richly colored flowers. Blooms begin to appear mid to late Summer when the hot sun may have taken its toll on other flowers. Hardy in zones 4-9. Edited by S. Derr
