Good, that’s an edible one then. It can carry on growing.
I’ll wait until it flowers to see what type.
Both leaves and flowers are safe feeds aren’t they?

I agree but not sure it is mallow, as the leaf markings are not the same. And the leaves look to floppy.
But I am sure there are a few varieties I don't know:0)

It didn’t shout mallow to me, hence why I put it up here, but I know there are many varieties so thought perhaps it was...but Hollyhock would be good too. I’ll wait until it flowers then.
Thanks everyone.
