Flowering hedge. Called "lazy mallow" in portuguese (well, brazilian anyway) because it doesn't bother to open its flowers. Cool plant, it was a weed all over the place. Rio de Janeiro bot.g., Brazil. Planted. 2001-02-13.
Malvaviscus arboreus Dill. ex Cav. Engl.: turk's cap, wax mallow. Bot. syn.: Malvaviscus drummondii Torr. & Gray
