Description:
One of the showiest and fastest growing shrubs for the dry garden, the Chaparral Mallow delights impatient gardeners with its incredibly rapid growth, and delights everyone else with its light pink, cup shaped flowers all summer. The trade off to its rapid growth (often more than 4 feet a year) is that it needs a hard fall pruning to prevent it from becoming leggy the following year. Full sun. Will creep underground to form a patch with age.
