This delicate little flower is busy spreading itself through my front flower garden. I don't know what it is. I suspect it might be a weed.
But a weed is just a plant in a place you don't want it. I like this flower and want it in my garden, so I declare it 'not a weed.'
The blossoms only last for a short time. This is what it looks like before the blossom opens. Anyone (Mom?) have any idea what this flower might be called?

Looks like a rose centered mallow - a variety of Hibiscus. http://www.easywildflowers.com/quality/hib.lasio.htm
Ellen, it does look like that - only it's much smaller. Perhaps it's in the same family. Thanks!
