This plant's flowers look very similar to the hibiscus (specifically pastel-ish pink) but it does not match any pictures I can find of this type!!

It certainly does look like a Hibiscus.

Do you know what kind? I think it might be, but like I said, nothing matches up!

I don't know which one. Perhaps you can post another photo when it blooms.

It usually only blooms once a year, and it's already bloomed... I can try to find some old pictures though!

It is indeed at feat to ID a Hibiscus with out the bloom. What is the green wrapping around the lower branch?

Moonhowl I am not sure! It's always been there- I think it's just plastic. If it had an ID on it, it's long gone now!

It looks like the plastic material used to attach plants to supports. Please do see if you have a picture.
