        this is from red clover sprouting seds, i think from Canada..

        were planted in a pot maybe year ago. months ago put in in ground. its hot here,

        it drinks alot..perhaps the soil was too hard to go deep roots, one day not water it falls.. less then a day

        will it produce the red flowers you shown in video

        i havent had it before. it just doesnt flower

          I”d give it some time. Many plants won’t flower the first year especially if they’re stressed.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.

              It’s good for skin conditions when used internally…things like eczema and psoriasis. Probably not for what you have going. I’d try some marshmallow and comfrey topically.

                  It certainly looks to be in the marshmallow/hollyhock group. It isn’t the species I grow.
