or is it mullein, there's about 6 of them out there, came upon their own, I can send two folks 3 ea, I think I might have a couple big ones out there too, not real big, but bigger than the other 6.
I can probably send them out for 1priority stamp or if I know you, you can just send the postage back to me.

Hi Kathy, What are they? When I query the PDB it says hibiscus. Is that right? Jeanette If so, I would love to have one.

Here is what I found-
Other names for this Texas Wildflower: Flannel Leaf, Indian Tobacco, Jupiter's staff and Velvet Dock. This flower has been used for making candles and making medicine. . This plant blooms from March to November.
It's an herb, same family as verbascum " Verbascum thapsus" common mullein it's got a yellow flower, tall spikes, and reseeds pretty heavily , I've seen this stuff come up way down the road l/4 mile, and I know it came from my seed LOL
It's not a hibiscus.
It also grows wild in the woods where my mother lived.

sorry tazzy, it's yellow, I have some other verbascums out front, if they reseed next spring, I'll give you a buzz. I've never heard of a blue mullein though, bet that's pretty.
