Description
Common name: Rose Mallow
Unlike other variegated varieties, ‘Summer Carnival’ displays excellent vigor, has great flower coverage, and forms a beautifully shaped habit. 7″, dark magenta pink flowers cover the upright, rounded habit. Each leaf has a narrow cream margin and the edges have a hint of blush. The perfect collector’s item!
*They are slow to show signs of life in the spring. Be sure to not disturb them. Sometimes coming up as last as mid June!
Hardy to zone 5. Possibly 4 with heavy mulch.
