This is a plant my neighbor started from seed. We have no idea what it is. The person we got the seeds from says it grows up to 10 ft tall,so I guess its some kind of tree.

Does anyone know what it might be?

The "Flowers"

The flowers are rosy pink balls and there are rosy pink veins on the leaves.

Thanks!!
