Beautiful! I'd guess a type of Mallow, couldn't give a variety name though, sorry.

The leaf (as far as can be seen) doesn't look like mallow. I think it might be godetia.

Look on Google Images - they look very like this.

I would have thought it's a Godetia (annuals) too.

A friend used to grow them every year - they can look quite exotic.

Pretty in Pink

Its a godetia.
Part of the mallow family.

Yep I'll go with Godetia as well. If youy leave them they will seed all over the place but you can control them easy enough.

Godetia always conjure up a vision of a magician pulling a bunch of flowers from his hat to me?

They always seem to be Godetia!

I think that's because they look a bit pleated and papery. Therefore you can make them from pleated paper
