@ShirleyStiles - It looks like Hibiscus "Painted Lady" to me. You might want to check with some Hibiscus savvies, though. 🌴🌺🐾

Which zone are you in? Rule of thumb I follow is when Temps start dropping below 40° at night. But I am in a zone 5. What you.need to do with it will depend on your zone.

It's not frost hardy. Needs full sun.

Make sure it is getting plenty of light through the winter, when you bring it inside. Now would be a good time to transplant to a slightly larger pot. One that it can stay in through next fall.
