Hi Loraine, nice spotting. Flower-of-an-hour is a beautiful flower, but classified as a common weed. As you can see from the name it belongs to the hibiscus genus in the Mallow family. FLower-of-an-hour is the only North American species that has lobed leaves which you can see beautifully in your picture. Thanks for sharing!
