This is a member of the same family as hibiscus, rose of Sharon and hollyhocks. It is a beautiful flowering shrub with double flowers unlike Rose of Sharon or hollyhocks which are singles. This reminded me more of hibiscus.

Kathy, your well taken capture shows that this flower family has handsome relatives. Very well done again!

It is a beautiful close-up capture, Kathy. We have many of its relatives in our yard.
