Is that a purple center on the blooms?
It could be a ground cover type of plant instead of an upright plant, that could be why it is falling over.
There is a native White Wine Cup but I don't know if that might be what you have because of the flower centers.

Possibly Hibiscus denudatus? Flower color can be from white to a pale pinkish violet.
