Malva cathayensis is very similar to the European M. sylvestris but has pilose instead of glabrous fruit. The ICBN requires the epithets "chinensis" and "sinensis" to be treated as homonyms (Vienna Code, Art. 53 Voted Ex. 9), hence a new epithet is needed for this species.

This species is cultivated as an ornamental; plants with white flowers are used medicinally.
