What is the optimal temperature for Common mallow?

Common mallow
Malva sylvestris
Learn More
The best temperature for Common mallow depends on the time of year. There are two primary seasons to discuss for temperature: the growing season, and the dormancy season. During the growing season, once Common mallow has begun to sprout, the ideal temperature range should be anywhere from 65~80℉(18~27℃). Any colder than 15℉(-10℃), and the plant will suffer; its leaves may brown and wilt, but if this is a short cold snap, then Common mallow may be able to survive with some help.
During the warmer parts of the year, Common mallow will need to be similarly protected from temperatures that are too high. 95-105℉ (35-40℃) is the top of this plant’s temperature range, and anything above that will compromise the integrity of the foliage and blooms of Common mallow. Hotter temperatures can cause wilting, drooping, and even sunburn on the leaves, which can be difficult for Common mallow to recover from. There are quite a few ways to combat this issue that are quick and easy!
