Mallow actually covers a very large group of plants in Hawaii. The most notable ones being cotton and hibiscus. The endemic cotton isn't good for fabric, so let's ignore that one and focus on the Hibiscus.
Hibiscus is a very prominent plant in Hawaii. The state flower is a hibiscus, the only naturally yellow hibiscus are endemic to Hawaii and endangered. The only naturally fragrant hibiscus are endemic to hawaii and endangered, and they can come in all sorts of colors. The red ones that most people think of are actually from southern China and the surrounding area, but we have those as well.
Mallow is a broad name, but we can infer that it has a tropical, verdant, jungle like feel when associated with what we know about Mallow so far. She also has a flower in her hair, but that looks generic as fuck.
I scared you by writing they're all endangered didn't I. Some plants are actually limited to about 20 in the wild in one or two fenced off patches. Thankfully most Hawaiian plants are cultivated locally for landscaping,so there is a safety net. The others are in the process of being cultivated.
