    I think it's called Mallow. (I think).

    Cheers, Tony.

    thanks- I have a mallow which is similar but the flowers are larger and more spaced so don't think that is what it is.

    I am thinking it could be as the leaves look the same but the way the flowers are more in sprays than spikes. The bees love them so need to grow more. Thanks

    I would agree with Silver Surfer.

    Its the same colour, height, leaf and floppy habit as my Sidalcea.
