This is a cutting of a 3 metre tall and wide tree at my old grandma's apartment back garden. The cutting is growing well and it's a year and a half old now. I used a plant identifier app and it says it's either a Hibiscus syriacus (Rose of Sharon) or a Morus alba (Chinese Mulberry). Both seem pretty close suggestions going by the leaf shape.
