Zebra mallow is a favorite for cottage-style gardeners, and with good reason. Butterflies adore this vertically-growing, easy-case plant. And, its pale pink blooms marked with deep purple striping add a flair of drama to the garden. Each showy, ballet-pink flower opens in a wide cup, showing off plummy stripes. Zebra Mallow draws in butterflies and bees with its sweet nectar, and serves as one of North America's host plants for the Painted Lady butterfly. While Zebra Mallow typically survives for only a few years, it self-seeds easily and naturalizes very well. Malva sylvestris 'Zebrina'
