    Thanks for the quick reply. The flowers are exactly alike. I think the leaves look different though. Does that matter? I'm going to check tomorrow and take a picture.
    I'm so excited to look up the malva sylvestris

    I agree!ha :D and looking through more websites about malva sylvestris..I believe it resembels the var. Zebrina aka Striped Mallow and Zebrina Hollyhock. Thanks so much people!

    here's a few more pictures, but we've got it figured out anyways right? I didn't plant the seeds (in the ground) till July. plus they are 7 or 8 years old and I've just been storing them in a glass jar.

    Around here it's a weedy plant so I'm not surprised to hear the seeds have high viability.
