It's not Okra, I grow plenty of that. Here is another photo of the
mystery flower, shows the foliage a little better. Very distinctive

It looks a little like a Hollyhock, about four feet tall, just started
putting out these big yellow blossoms. The leaves look unlike any
hollyhocks I've grown previously.
Any idea what it might be?
Thanks
