Do you know what this is?

by Angela Webb
(Tulsa, Oklahoma)

I have this mysterious plant in my yard. Can you please identify it?
Thank you so much!!


Drought Smart Plants reply:

Hi Angela, that looks to me like a Hibiscus, the Rose of Sharon. I'm not totally sure, but the leaf shape and the flowers with the dark centers are typical. If this is what it is, what a treasure!

They are pretty forgiving of most treatment, they like adequate water and soil, and seem fairly resistant to insects, pests and diseases.

Happy Gardening!
