It is a Hibiscus, but it's a perennial type called Rose of Sharon. It forms
a bush and is deciduous (loses all leaves in winter). I have two on the
side of my house in full sun and they are a favorite of Japanese Beetles,
although they really didn't bother my yard this year. Mine are a medium
pink in color.

I bought a supposed Hibiscus from Home Depot. It does not appear to be so.
Checking the web, all the pictures I found did not look like my plant. The
flower looks a lot like a white rose, although the stems are smooth.
Please
help identify!
