That looks like a dwarf Hollyhock to me Tim.

just googled that, found one image that looked quite similar so it could be, the strange thing is, i only planted it out about a month a go, i grew it on my spare bedroom windowsill, i didnt plant it there tho, i had a large pot in there growing dahlias last year, then after i removed them and planted them out this and another plant which looks like a strawberry (ill get photos soon) germinated, so i kept watering them, and they survived the winter and now are as the photo shows .... but ive never bought hollyhock seeds lol only thing i can think is it was in the compost i grew the dahlias in ??

At a stretch, it could be a Regal Pelargonium, which has gone wrong.

It's very pretty

I'm useless at IDing (apart from trees, I'm normally good with trees. Oh and grass)

I would say it was a Malva. I have a few in my garden i have grown from seed this year.

They are a member of the Hollyhock family.

Goggle Malva and you will find it.
