Regular deep watering is advisable. Immune to the heat and humidity of the deep South. Tolerates some light shade, but full sun with good air circulation produces the best flowers, the strongest stems and the best environment for resisting potential diseases. Site in locations protected from wind to minimize the risk of wind burn. Pinch back growing tips when they reach 8” and again at 12” if bushy plants are desired. Deadhead individual flowers to maintain plant appearance. Cut back stems to approximately 3-4 inches in late autumn. New growth shoots are slow to emerge in spring. However, once new growth begins, it proceeds quite rapidly. Plants will benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season.Zones 5-9Rose Mallow Germination:1) Soak seeds in warm water for 24hrs.2) Place seeds inside of a zip lock bag filled with moist sand and place inside the fridge for 60 days to cold stratify them. Leave 1 inch of the bag open for slight air circulation. This will break the seeds dormancy and allow them to sprout when planted.3) Plant seeds 1/4" deep into a well draining seed starting mix.4) Use a heated propagator mat to keep the soil at 85 degrees F. during the day. Turning off the mat at night to decrease the temperature between 65-68 degrees will mimic their natural conditions in the wild and increase germination speed.5) Cover with plastic to keep humidity around 60%, and use a grow lamp to keep bright light on them, but no full sun.6) Expect germination within 2-3 weeks."If you Need Anything, Please Contact us First"
