In many respects this plant much resembles the Artnza 
rosea, or common Holly-hock, but seems to differ, besides in 
diminished stature, in the more uniform rounded lobes of the 
leaf, more neatly sawed at the edge; in the flowers being 
always solitary, which in the latter grow mostly two or more 
from the same axil; in the bearded claws of the petals ; and, 
perhaps, in the four-cleft palmate stipules. 
Flowers in March and April. Propagated by seeds.
