Dear fellow gardening bloggers/gardening enthusiasts/blog readers,
Could any of you help me to identify this plant, please? Thanks in advance for your help....:)
The Confederate Rose is a member of the Malvaceae family (along with all the common Hibiscus plants, Althea, Cotton plant, Okra, etc). They all have the distinctive large flower.
The Confederate Rose is also known as cotton flower, cotton rosemallow, rose cotton. The botanical name mutabilis means ‘variable’ and probably relates to the most significant feature of this plant: that the flowers change color.
You can read here for more info :)
