Rose Alcea, Hollyhock, El Salvador - a photo on Flickriver

            SN/NC: Althea Rosea, Malvaceae Family

This is a perennial Malvaceae plant growing extensively in the gardens of the Sheraton. This lovely hollyhock is present with many other species in the Park. I love Malvaceaes. That is where the Okra comes from... Beautiful, a great color.  Holly hocks are members of the mallow family, which includes marshmallow and okra. The whole family produces slime, holly hock included, that soothes irritated tissues. Holly hocks can be applied to a sting, made into a cough syrup, or brewed into a tea for a stomachache. And, the good news is that you probably have the plant in the garden.
 
Alcea rosea también conocida como malva real, entre muchos nombres comunes, es una de las especies más cultivada del género Alcea, perteneciente a la familia de las malváceas.
 
Malva real, malva, planta da familia das malvaceaes, sempre muito bonitas e que chamam a atencao pelas cores vivas e atrai muitas abelhas e borboletas.
