Deer love this hollyhock
by: Anonymous

A lovely, invasive, deer loving hollyhock in San Jose, CA. This species is more prone to rust than others, but will survive. Great flowers, just not for my area.

Thanks all! I have come to the conclusion that they are Hollyhock Mallow Zebrina aka French Hollyhock. They have spread in the 3 short weeks that I have been here. I have already pulled a bunch out, but still have a nice patch. I can see that if I want to keep them I will have to be on top of pulling any unwanted plants.

This is a Zebra Mallow - Malva Sylvestris Zebrina. I have them and they are lovely and trouble free - they self seed.

This is definitely a hollyhock. Rose mallow flowers appear more delicate and don't have the indentation in each petal. They look similar, and some people use either name for either plant. I have each on my 5 acre property. The mallows seem to like being a little more damp, and I grow them around my bog area.

This is a miniature hollyhock. They are beautiful, but are very invasive. My deceased aunt had given one to my mother and me, since she had passed away I had worked very hard to contain it and keep it. I cried when I finally gave up and ripped it all out. I should not have worried, after a 3 year campaign to get rid of it we are still getting little plants coming up, some the whole way across an acre lot from where it was originally planted.

This may be a Hollyhock. The plants do grow tall and do spread too. I love them. Someone mentioned Rose Mallow, but I am not sure. Hollyhocks come in many beautiful colours.

It's a rose mallow. Not sure which one. Some varieties can get quite tall. They do spread and can try to take over an entire bed. Ask me how I know! In my zone 5B they will flower from June til frost.
