Default Can you ID this plant Please?

How about the double flowered form of Hibiscus mutabilis? It is commonly
called the "Confederate Rose" and is said to be an old favorite in the
"South". (but I don't think they meant South Africa.) The species is named
for its changable flower color.

It looks like a double flowered shrubby Hibiscus hybrid. Unless by some
chance the fruit prove it to belong in some other allied African

Malvaceous
genus. Cannot see the arrangement of the stamens and stigmas from the
picture and that is often distorted in double flowered cultivars anyway..
