Hibiscus syriacus
Spotted next to the moat surrounding Takada Castle
So, scientific name: Hibiscus syriacus; common name: Rose of Sharon?

Some of the flowers name Rose of Sharon , are :Hibiscus syriacus.... The thing is you set two difernt flowers....
Yes, Alice - I just googled Rose of Sharon and they do look very similar.
Thanks Jonathan - I think you're on the money there. Right, I need to figure out how to update this entry!
It is strange , but it reminds me of Rose of Sharon. It was my favorite when I was a little girl.
the second pic, that looks like a lotus.....for sure
Looks to me like a Malvaceae, Hibiscus sp, I can see numerous stamens, united to the long column....
