This is Hibiscus mutabilis Rose Single, also known as Cotton Rose. The flowers open up white or light pink and then they change into a deep red and purple all in one day. It is an amazing display of a quick color change. This shrub likes to live in the full sun and blooms from late Summer until early Fall. This southern beauty is a classic and a must in any southern garden. Hibiscus mutabilis is listed as a famine food. The leaves can be boiled and mixed with salt and oil.
