    Hi Vampire & [​IMG].. :scratch: Your plant certainly has a sort of familiarity about it, but cannot put a name a present but I am sure someone else will be along soon with a better idea.. :thumb:

    I was thinking Hibiscus too...and as Marley Farley said...it looked sort of familiar to me too and I had to go google and came back thinking it might be a hibiscus and then saw the rest of the answers. :dh:
