  1. This is probably a 'Kopper King' or another similar hybrid cultivar of Hibiscus. I have identified it as Hibiscus moscheutos which is one of the parent species.

''Hibiscus moscheutos'' is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae. It is a cold-hardy perennial wetland plant that can grow in large colonies. The hirsute leaves are of variable morphology, but are commonly deltoidal in shape with up to three lobes. It is found in wetlands and along the riverine systems of the southeastern United States from Texas to the Atlantic states, its territory extending northward to southern Ontario.
