This blossom was shot near the edge of the pond where my recent post, "Hunting 
Egret" was shot.
Am mildly curious if anyone knows it's common name. Thanks!

Alan and Dan -
what Jack photo'ed is growing wild out west.. desert rose-mallow is a 
common name in those parts for one (or some?) species of Hibiscusthat is 
commonly found
in the southwest US-- however whenI looked it up by that name the photo 
I saw didn't have such fat leaves...   so now I'm stumped.

They look quite similar & have probably been domesticated, hybridised & 
spread around by horticulturalists. I picked the swamp variety because Jack 
found it on the edge of a dam. There are so many varieties to be found 
worldwide:

No, we have decided it ain't - because of the skinny leaves there are 
jsut too many dammed hibiscuses On an irrelevant to photography note - I 
won a challenge against US/World and Canadian Champion Scrabble player, 
Joel Wapnick, some years back In a fairly important tourney when he 
tried to get away with HIBISCI. A rare moment in my tourney history. 
Didn't keep him from winning that game though. I have beaten him, but 
not in any signifigant tourneys.

 Still friends though :-) ann

Over here the dictionary that official Scrabble words come from is Chambers, 
and a Latin plural is not given, so hibiscuses is the plural in UK English too 
- and that's what is given in Chambers.

It's interesting to note, though, the confusion online about the Latin plural, 
indeed about the gender and even existence of 'hibiscus' - at least one of the 
online dictionaries claims it is 2nd declension feminine - which doesn't exist! 
All 2nd declension nouns are masculine or neuter. 

My print dictionary (Collins) has hibiscum as the Latin for marsh-mallow, and 
does not have 'hibiscus' at all. Hibiscum is 2nd declension neuter, so the 
(nominative) plural is hibisca. In this form 'hibisci' exists as the genitive 
singular: 'of the marsh-mallow'.

Some of the online etymologies give 'hibiscus', which is masculine, as a later 
Latin form (presumably later than the Golden Age) but they don't say how much 
later. So it changed gender during the course of its development - a genuine 
paradigm shift. In this later form 'hibisci' is the correct Latin nominative 
plural.

So there you have it, in case anyone asks why it was disallowed.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KAfKFKBlZbM

B

P.s. I think it's H. moscheutos, which would make it a swamp marsh-mallow, and 
therefore a cross-language pleonasmic tautological redundancy.
