These sturdy, stately plants, hybrids of our native rose mallows, are prized for their use as structure in a perennial border. Everything about them is large, from their rich green, three-lobed lobed leaves to their immense flowers. ‘Airbrush Effect’ has bright pink flowers brushed with white and a carmine eye on flowers measuring 8 inches across. The blossoms have conspicuous bottlebrush reproductive structures in the middle, making them appear quite tropical. The flowers are followed by attractive seed capsules that remain on the plant through winter. Use them as accent plants, focal points for distant viewing, a backdrop for other perennials in the border, and along the water’s edge. Hummingbirds are drawn to this plant.
