    Hi all.

    I've been growing these but don't really know their true identities.

    2014-06-12-s2-093.JPG came from cuttings and bloomed fantastically well. Pretty sure it's perennial and for the life of me don't know what it is.

    Larkspur-Perennial-China-Blue-2011-07-19-045.jpg is a kind of larkspur from what I've learned but I'm not sure of the name. Doesn't grow more than about 4 feet high with sapphire blue flowers.

    Hollyhock-Mallow-2011-07-19-043.jpg There are about a bazillion hollyhocks out there and I think this plant is at least related to hollyhock but not sure.

    Any help is appreciated.

    #1 - Campanula glomerata
    #2 - Delphinium sp. - as species plants are rare in the trade, I would say that it's a hybrid with D. grandiflorum being one of the possible parents.

    #3 is indeed a mallow. Not sure of the name of that variety though.

    #1. Campanula glomerata, as stated.
    #2. Delphinium grandiflorum which is commonly available in this area.
    #3. Lavatera sp., maybe L. thuringiaca
