How Your Plant Will Arrive Planting Requirements Planting Guide

As we recommend with all plants, you should regularly water your Indian Mallow once planted, ideally for the next few months.

When planting, dig a hole twice the circumference of the pot. Ensure that the pot sits roughly level with the soil, with the graft point above the soil. Fill the remaining space with a mix of compost and garden soil. Make sure that you firm down the soil, but not so you are compressing it down.
