Hello people,

Can you help identify this one? A Hibiscus perhaps? Found in the
Himalayas

It's a cultivated type of daylily, Hemerocallis. Likely imported to that
area from the West.


Granted it is possibly out of cultivation but, it is more likely from the
east. Since Hemerocallis is indigenous to China it is probable that the
plants are naturalized in the Himalayas.
