I am pretty sure this is a weed, however, it has a pretty little flower. Any help is appreciated.

LOL, it looks like a plant I had sprout up in my backyard in September 2016 that I thought someone here identified but now I can't remember the name:

A hibiscus relative, I believe. Reminds me of Confederate Rose.

Yes, I believe it's in the Malvaceae family but I can't recall which Genus.

It's apparently naturalized here in Florida but is considered a threat. More information and photos:

Think it might be rose of sharon. They get to be large bushes and start easily from seed. Related to the hibiscus family.

Thanks, Lin. That's it. I'm always suspicious of something that pops up in the yard! I feel I'm not lucky enough to have the good fortune of a real flower turning up here! Hilarious!
