I don't think the ordered young plant will recover. Only one leaf, the size of half a centimetre, is emerging from the pot.

Description

Malva moschata 'Alba', known as white mallow, forms a magnificent ramified bush, covered in beautiful cup-shaped white flowers. Its finely cut foliage adds significant ornamental interest.

It is easy to live with, but can be a little invasive if left to self-seed.

The flowers are pretty in bouquets.
