Seen growing outside in London. Appears to be hardy because it's been here for at least two years now

Hi Hostafan1.
I think you're right. Just Googled "variegated malva" n results similar to the pictures above. I saw some more two days ago in central London. All were growing naturally as a standard!
Thank you

A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
