Well, this is a confusing plant. It seems as if there are different varieties that are blended with different families. They are an herb related to cotton, cocoa, and hibiscus. I guess that scientific names and families are just different with different species. I found a Mallow family also that it is considered to be in so I don't really know especially for this certain one.
I have no clue about the forest cotton flowers name. It is a tall upright plant that is grown for its immature seed pods. there is one in the background of the picture. I think the one I took this picture of was more like a bush. By my quick research it looks like it might be considered an herb in some species. Some of the scientific names start with herbasceous.
