Description
Sidalcea 'Party Girl', also known simply as Sidalcea, is a particularly compact, resistant variety with a generous summer flowering and a charming countryside appeal! It is a tall perennial resembling a miniature hollyhock, with charming basal, shiny green lobed foliage. From July, very tall spikes of numerous light cups with fringed petals, in a lavender-pink colour punctuated with a white centre, emerge from its clump. Sidalceas are perfect perennials in an English or romantic cottage garden, placed in the background of flower beds with blue, white, and pink flowering perennials, as borders or even in pots around a terrace. They appreciate well-drained, rich, and moist soil and sunny to semi-shaded exposures. It is a perennial that can be short-lived and can behave like a biennial, reseeding well in cool soil.
Sidalcea 'Party Girl' belongs to the Malvaceae family along with hollyhocks and marshmallows. Its ancestors lived in meadows and clearings in the northwestern United States. This short-lived herbaceous perennial reaches maturity in 2 to 5 years and ensures its longevity through numerous spontaneous seedings. This horticultural variety stands out with its compact habit and excellent floribundance. It blooms between July and August, in the form of sturdy and unbranched stems reaching a height of 80 cm (32 in), bearing numerous small flowers with a diameter of 3 cm (1 in), resembling those of mallow, with 5 fringed petals that are silky-textured and veined. The basal foliage, which forms a clump 45 cm (18 in) wide, consists of large orbicular leaves, wider than they are long, which are well-lobed, toothed, and dissected, while the leaves of the stems are much smaller and narrower. The foliage colour is a beautiful shiny green.
Place this adorable and perfectly hardy perennial in the middle of flower beds, in the company of Japanese anemones, Phlox paniculata, annual poppies, and perennial Delphiniums to create an elegant and poetic scene. Its compact habit does not require staking. Sidalcea 'Party Girl' also thrives in a cool rockery, associated with columbines and lady's mantle; you can create refined bouquets with its cut flowers. It also grows very well in containers or pots.

Planting and care
Sidalcea 'Party Girl' enjoys the sun but make sure to avoid overly hot or dry locations. Place it in good garden soil, preferably loamy or sandy, that is cool and not too chalky. This perennial fears waterlogged soil, so protect it with a good blanket of dry ferns or straw during frosty periods without snow. It is easy to grow. Cut back the flowering stems once flowering is finished to prevent seed formation and encourage new flowering.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
