Native Texas plant, Truk's Cap, Wax Mallow,( Malvaviscus drummondii ) Lovely shrub 4 to 6 feet tall, evergreen untill freeze, dies to the ground in zone 8 comes back in the spring. Full sun, part shade to shade. The lovely red flowers never quite open, and hummingbirds love to eat from them. Close up of the flower.
