Thanks again, Ann!

No, we have decided it ain't - because of the skinny leaves there are jsut too many dammed hibiscuses On an irrelevant to photography note - I won a challenge against US/World and Canadian Champion Scrabble player, Joel Wapnick, some years back In a fairly important tourney when he tried to get away with HIBISCI. A rare moment in my tourney history. Didn't keep him from winning that game though. I have beaten him, but not in any signifigant tourneys.
 Still friends though :-) ann

Alan and Dan -
what Jack photo'ed is growing wild out west.. desert rose-mallow is a
common name in those parts for one (or some?) species of Hibiscusthat is
commonly found
in the southwest US-- however whenI looked it up by that name the photo
I saw didn't have such fat leaves...   so now I'm stumped.

Definitely a wild hibiscus, probably Hibiscus moscheutos (swamp

This blossom was shot near the edge of the pond where my recent post,
"Hunting Egret" was shot.
Am mildly curious if anyone knows it's common name. Thanks!
