Malva sylvestris 'Mystic Merlin' Magic Mallow 'Mystic Merlin'

Tall sturdy spikes loaded with silky saucer-shaped flowers in a rich, mesmerising shade of deep violet-purple, intricately veined with darker maroon — true to its name, the colour is quite magical, shifting between deep indigo-purple and rich magenta depending on temperature and soil. 'Mystic Merlin' is the cottage garden's most dramatic dark-Malva, providing Hollyhock-style architectural drama in a more manageable perennial form.

If you love the height and drama of Hollyhocks but struggle with their rust problems, Malva sylvestris 'Mystic Merlin' is the perfect alternative. This stunning variety produces tall (1.2–1.5m) sturdy spikes loaded with silky saucer-shaped flowers in a mesmerising deep violet-purple, intricately veined with darker maroon. The colour has genuine character — it shifts subtly between deep indigo-purple and richer magenta tones depending on temperature, soil chemistry and time of day, giving the plant a different appearance under different conditions. The plant forms a substantial shrubby mound that flowers tirelessly from early summer through autumn, providing a dramatic dark backdrop that makes brighter neighbours appear to glow. Short-lived hardy perennial (H5) — typically lives 3–4 years, gaining size and drama each season. RHS Plants for Pollinators recognised. The flowers and young leaves are 100% edible.

A note on growing

Malvas are robust and easy from seed. Sow indoors February–May or direct outdoors May. Surface-sow onto moist compost and cover with a light dusting of vermiculite. Maintain 15–20°C; germination 14–21 days. Transplant carefully. Plant in full sun or partial shade — 'Mystic Merlin' is unfussy about soil type, thriving in everything from heavy clay to dry sandy ground, provided drainage is reasonable. Its impressive height makes it ideal for the back of borders or against sunny walls.

The mid-summer chop: if the plant becomes straggly after its first flush, shear stems back by half. Water in well; a fresh flush follows for autumn display. This is the most important maintenance practice for Malvas — without it, plants become woody and less floriferous as the season progresses.

Self-seeds prolifically — once you have 'Mystic Merlin', a permanent colony of mystical purple blooms tends to follow indefinitely.

Where it shines

At the back of cottage borders as architectural vertical drama — 'Mystic Merlin' provides Hollyhock-style impact without the susceptibility to rust that plagues actual Hollyhocks. As a complementary planting partner for warm yellow and orange perennials — purple and orange are classic complementary colours, and 'Mystic Merlin' against Rudbeckia or Calendula 'Touch of Red' creates a "colour clash" border that genuinely glows in late summer. In wildlife gardens, where the open saucer flowers are exceptional bumblebee plants. Against sunny walls and fences where the structural form provides architectural cottage character.

Plant alongside

For high-impact late-summer colour clash, pair 'Mystic Merlin' with Rudbeckia or Calendula 'Touch of Red' for the purple-and-orange complementary combination that defines designer cottage borders. For an all-Malva three-tone scheme, combine with Malva moschata 'Alba' (refined white) and Malva 'Zebrina' (soft lilac-pink with veining). With Echinops ritro 'Veitch's Blue' for blue-and-purple architectural drama.

Not a bad start

3 stars Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC! A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world. • slow burn • enemies to lovers • who did this to you Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined. I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark. The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about. There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Great start
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! It's funny but still deals with tough themes, like chronic illness, a serial killer on the loose, and a dash of self-harm. The guys are interesting and distinct, we don't know too much about them yet. It does end on a really terrible cliffhanger but on the bright side the next book is out and I believe the series is complete. I have enjoyed both of these authors separately and this is a great team up!

Fudge!
Format: Kindle
Titles aren’t my strong suit. Sorry not sorry. That ending has me completely frustrated book two isn’t out yet. Just throwing that out there. First thing first, this is a high school book where the lead is under 18. Yea yea she’s about month from being an adult, but I can’t say I would’ve even opened the file if I’d realized. It’s not a smut fest or anything, but there is sexual tension as each party figures out their emotions. That being said, it’s a good book. There are some troubling parts, like how the supes come into their powers at 13, but most of those are dealt with in a way that makes sense. Kian is the exception. His whole arc pisses me off, especially since no one stepped in. Reflecting back on real world situations, ten or so years ago, I can see it happening, but it still makes me sick. Which, I’m sure was the whole damn point. For the most part, Courting Darkness is a fun read. I found myself laughing along with most of the set up. By the time it started getting serious, I’d grown to like the characters enough it held an impact. I’ll be adding book two to my list for when it comes out.

Intriguing
Format: Kindle
An intriguing story that played out slowly while introducing some unique characters. The story became quite fascinating to read as these same characters provided startling revelations to their lives. As their relationships evolve, more drama and mystery is revealed adding to my fascination. I can’t wait to read more.

Outstanding Story!!!!!!!
Format: Kindle
Oh I loved this story. Sera is such an amazing, fun character. She has so much fire inside of herself. She has humor that makes you laugh with her sassy comments. The guys are fantastic. I don’t feel as if we really have gotten to know who and what they are but they are such a mix of fae. The story is extremely well written and developed. It had me pulled in and didn’t let go. There was so much action, drama, and suspense. Then we get to the ending and goodness there is so much going on. This ending was a major cliffhanger and I absolutely can’t wait to see what happens next.
