This horticultural selection from Sphaeralcea ambigua (Apricot Mallow) has gorgeous deep red inflorescences that flower nearly non-stop with fuzzy gray-green foliage. Adapted to desert climates, it is nearly drought tolerant once established. It loves full sun and low moisture (once established), grows fast. Pairs well with other desert plants and can provide some softness and color amongst sculptural or sharp cactus and grasses.
