<They are a hibiscus relative.... Is it an annual or perennial?Look sorta like the Rose of Sharon (a perennial) have, but different leaves (ofcourse, mine has been hit by a combo of giant whiteflies and drought). Anotherpossibility is okra (an annual), or, less likely, bitter melon (usually hasyellow flowers).

NO NO - Black eyed susans look like a daisy shaped flower - with deep yellow petals and a deep brown center.

You're right, Cheryl. They're very common in wild flower mixes for Tink's and my zones. The name might be desert rose mallow.

How tall is the plant and how large is the flower? That might be helpful. It sure is pretty. The foliage looks like a poppy's. Diana
