what kind of plant?
Looks like a hibiscus flower to me. They come in many different colors.

just seemed too big to be one…
especially since we haven’t killed it yet. I think its similar, maybe even related, but I don’t think its actually a hibiscus

I’m not sure, the central spear is poofy at the base and comes to a point, whereas on a hibiscus, its clean throughout and then has a poofy end.

the petals are definitely not the right shape and I didn’t see any pictures of Morning Glory with an inner stem.

My mom has a Hibiscus plant that is 6-7 ft tall and probably equally as wide… They get to be fairly big if you let em

not when heather is around… her aura kills plants. Have you seen our vegitable garden lately? it’s like death on a stick.

is it vine-ish? I’d say morning glory (you sad no to) or trumpet vine. but I think that’s orange.

We have tons of trumpet vine, and its definitely not Morning Glory.
It may actually be hibiscus, Its just got all the wrong central stem structure.

looks *kinda* like a Mandevilla vine….
maybe it’s a Mandevilla/Hibiscus mutant. : )

Actually the central peice comes in different sizes and widths…. just depends on the kind, there are like 300 types of hibiscus. The one in my moms yard has the fat one like that (although the actual flower is red)
