How to fertilize Malva subovata
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Malva subovata after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Got this lovely smelling Geranium a few days ago from a lady a few blocks from here. She is one of the participants of the Cuttings Route (Stekjes Route) in the Netherlands and Belgium. She told me it could help against mosquitoes. So I named her Mosy, gave here a little love, a new pot and now she stands on my nightstand (the Geranium I mean), because I'm the one who always gets stinged. F-ing 🦟
