''Malvaviscus arboreus'' is a species of flowering plant in the hibiscus family, Malvaceae,〔 that is native to the Southeastern United States, Mexico, Central America, and South America. The specific name, ''arboreus'', refers to the tree-like appearance of a mature plant. It is now popular in cultivation and goes by many English names including Turkcap, Turk's turban, wax mallow, ladies teardrop and Scotchman's purse. Its flowers do not open fully and help attract butterflies and hummingbirds. ==Habitat and ecology== An example occurrence of ''M. arboreus'' is within the coastal Petenes mangroves of the Yucatán region of Mexico, in which plant community it is a subdominant species.〔World Wildlife Fund. eds. Mark McGinley, C.Michael Hogan & C. Cleveland. 2010. (''Petenes mangroves''. Encyclopedia of Earth. National Council for Science and the Environment. Washington DC )〕 ''M. arboreus'' is the primary host plant for the caterpillars of the Turk's-cap White-Skipper (''Heliopetes macaira'').〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Turk's-cap White-Skipper ''Heliopetes macaira'' (Reakirt, ()) )〕
