Flora of Cornwall (1999)

The descriptive text, below the map, is from the Flora of Cornwall (1999), which was a Tetrad Atlas (the maps had 2km square dots or Tetrads). The map on this web page depicts the plant's distribution at the 1km square scale and shows the records made pre-2000 which were used in the 1999 Flora and those made since.

Malva neglecta - Dwarf Mallow



Dwarf Mallow is of sporadic occurrence on the mainland but is readily seen on the inhabited islands of the Isles of Scilly. In 1989 it was abundant in a sandy, arable field by Phillack Towans (SW53U, M.Tempest) and may still be seen in this area (1998, D.T.Holyoak).
