    I am posting three photographs. The 1st. is most probably Hibiscus, but what species? The 2nd. is a marsh plant & 3rd. is aclimber. Help needed for their identification. Thanks in advance.

    #2 looks like a Sagittaria spec.. Some of them have leaves which are not sagittate. Some even have grasslike leaves. However, upon closer inspection of the leaves, it looks like there is more than one main vein, which means it might be water plantain, Alisma spec.
