Looks like a Lavatera. Try doing a Google image search.

It looks like a tree mallow to me. Very attractive but fast growing, as you
say. It will stand cutting back hard.

Lavatera x clementii 'Barnsley'. The distinguishing feature is the white
petals, aging to pink, with darker pink claws. (AFAIK, none of the other
varieties develop such a strong pink colour from an initial white
state.)

Looks like lavatera. its a shrub which you can prune back a bit in autumn
(to prevent wind rock) and again in spring harder like a buddleja
