Rose Checker Mallow

Rose Checker Mallow is a perennial flower, native to the Northwest, that has pink blooms. It can usually be found growing in meadows, open fields, along roadsides and throughout the loping hills of the Northwest. Rose Checker Mallow is more commonly found in areas that have higher moisture levels. In the Northwest, fall plant this flower outside for the best results. Most Oregon native wildflowers need cold weather to spur them out of the ground. Patience is important, because some can take longer to grow and up to three years to fully establish themselves.
