Default Mystery shrub ID please

Ray's had this for some years but just can't remember the name. It
produces seed pods but unless the fluff inside is seed, they're
sterile. We assume the fluff is just 'packing'! Unfortunately we have
only one. http://www.flickr.com/photos/93694401@N03/9363059013/

Thanks but no, I'm afraid not. I see the similarity but we'd know a
hibiscus and it's just not quite that.

Perfect!! We had an idea it began with L but that's as far as our
memories went. Thank you so much, Stewart.
