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.

A lot of quality filters for little cost.
Style: 16x20x1, Style: 16x20x1
Been using these for months, great quality. No issues what so ever. I compared price to the 2 main big box stores and this is the best for your bucks. You get a lot more and they are of the same quality. I used to get mine from a big box store with military discount of 10% and this is still a better deal. They fit exactly like the filter I took out, so size is the same. I live FL and run my AC constantly. These last about 2-3 months each. They do no lose their rigidity. They are built with very high quality material. They catch a lot of dust, you can see how dirty they are when replaced. PROS - great quality and last 2-3 months in my AC running constantly - you get a lot for your money when compared to the big box stores - catch a lot of dirt, filters are really dirty after use - very rigid which makes it easy to installation - reinforced wire mesh CONS - None

Top quality filters at a good price.
Style: 20x30x1
These filters are good quality. They are reinforced and hold their shape. They fit perfectly in my filter holder. The thing I like is that the filters were bundled together and shipped in a sturdy box. Other filters I have ordered showed up in a flimsy box and were damaged.

Great Fit and Noticeable Air Quality Improvement
Style: 12x24x1
I purchased the Filterbuy 12x24x1 MERV 8 air filters and have been very happy with them so far. They fit perfectly in my HVAC system without any gaps or issues during installation. After replacing my old filters, I noticed the air in my home feels cleaner and there seems to be less dust settling around the house. They do a good job of capturing everyday particles and allergens while still allowing good airflow. Overall, this is a reliable and cost-effective 4-pack of filters. Solid quality, easy to install, and a noticeable improvement in air freshness. I’ll definitely be ordering again.
