Common Mallow is a European annual or biennial widely naturalized in disturbed areas, gardens, and roadsides across North America. Its small white to pale pink flowers and round, cheese-wheel-shaped fruit clusters are distinctive. Despite being non-native, its flowers support specialist mallow bees and many generalist pollinators.
