Hello,
This plant was on my allotment when I took it over last summer - just the old stem looking a bit sad & tired, no flowers. I left it in place over winter thinking that if it survived it might provide ground cover. Now it's bushed out from the original stem and is covered with lovely pale lilac flowers. If anyone can tell me what it is, I'd be very grateful!

How bizarre! Earlier today I had to install and use the PlantNet app to identify a plant spotted while walking the dog. And it was Malva Moschata/Musk Mallow aswell. I only opened this thread because the title reminded me of the app name and it turns out to be the exact same plant.
