Hi there,
Could anyone help me with the name of the plant/shrub in the top of this picture (above the geraniums).

Also, any advice on whether it would grow in the UK would also be appreciated.

Looks like Hibiscus rosa-sinensis to me, or something very similar.
Definitely a hibiscus, anyway. They are not hardy in the UK, and would
not survive a winter outside, but would be suitable for a conservatory.
You can usually find them in various flower colours in garden centres.
