Front yard - Plant ID - Rose Mallow


In our front yard, there are these GORGEOUS red/magenta flowers.  They bloomed mid-summer and the colour was absolutely stunning.  I recall a neighbor walked by and said "wow, they are so big, like a satellite dish!".


I went to Sheridan Nurseries and saw the same plant, so I checked out the plant tag to see the details.  I guess the full name of this plant is "Rose Mallow" (Hibiscus moscheutos Luna Rose).  I also found a link online with more detailed info: 


A photo from Sheridan Nurseries - they had some beautiful ones there too! 
Happy Gardening!!!
