Can anyone ID this plant? It was found near the Alafia River on a trail off Hwy 39 near Plant City, Florida. My first guess would be some sort of Mallow (Hibiscus type?)

For sure a hibiscus. There are a few with a similar flower.

Look at this one. Hibisus cannabinus

or
Hibiscus radiatus

Thanks ZilyZily. I checked with my local Environmental Agencies and it probably is H. radiatus.
