Malrove is on the Dutch Red List of plants in 2020 as very rare and very strongly decreased in number. The plant can be easily planted in the garden. In fact, it quickly becomes invasive. It is very hardy, provided you protect the plant from the wind. If it doesn't freeze too hard, it will even keep its leaves in the winter. The location must be sunny, the soil enriched with compost, but not overfilled with nutrients. It is important to have loose soil through which rainwater can drain, as the plant cannot tolerate an abundance of water.
