Our thanks to all those that made suggestions concerning our mystery
plant.  (http://herbarium.usu.edu click on unknown plant in left
column). The consensus seems to be Malvaceae, possibly Hibiscus but not
H. cannabinus because the leaves are not regularly serrate. Another
possibility is Okra.  The person checking into it is Ali Kelly
(ali at biology.usu.edu), the Collections Manager.  Because I shall be
leaving the country for two weeks, please contact her directly if you
have any further suggestions.  We do not have a specimen of okra in the
collection, yet.
