Sidalcea hybrida 'Party Girl'
Prairie Mallow 'Party Girl'
Sidalcea is reliable and easy to grow, and it is an excellent addition to wild gardens and meadow plantings. Grow Prairie Mallow plants in full sun to partial shade where it thrives with moisture and tolerates moderate water once established. The flower is excellent for cutting, and makes a great addition to the cottage garden or cutting garden. 'Party Girl' is a deeper rose-pink than the wildflower species (to which its seedlings will revert).

Planting young plants
From Mid Spring TO Late Spring
Plant young plants and seedlings straight into their growing position, in full sunshine to a partislly shaded site. The soil should be acid to neutral and should be moist but well drained. Ensure the prepared bed is free of weeds to prevent the plants from having to compete for moisture.
