[[File:Hibiscus mutabilis 0408.JPG|thumb|right]]
'''Hibiscus mutabilis''' is an erect, robust, much-branched deciduous shrub or small tree growing from 1.5 - 5 metres tall. The plant is harvested from the wild mainly as a medicinal plant and source of fibre. It is widely cultivated in tropical and occasionally in temperate areas as an ornamental plant, valued particularly for its flowers, which change colour as the day progresses; there are many named varieties.
