    Marsh mallow is a perennial plant, scientific name Althaea officinalis, native to Europe and Western Asia. It grows mainly in salty marshes and on the banks of tidal rivers. It is known for its soft, velvety leaves and pale pink or white flowers. The root of the marsh mallow plant was used traditionally to create a sweet treat, which is where the name for the modern marshmallow confectionery comes from, although modern marshmallows no longer contain any part of the plant.
