Hi everybody, It is a lovely day here, even on the hot side! I just went for a little walk to see how things are growing. We have had a very nice rain, so things are really growing and blooming. I have several different hibiscus bushes. The first photo is of a single hibiscus and it always has saucer sized blooms on it...very pretty. Another red hibiscus has double flowers on it, as you can see. They are smaller blooms and tend to hang down with the weight of the petals.
The blooms also have a touch of white on the edges which is very pretty. The orange girl is also a double bloom flower. A very pretty color, too.
Now what is this monster? Just look at all those long pods on the Golden Tree. About 3 weeks ago it was full of beautiful golden flowers. They all fell off after being on a few weeks, and then the twigs were bare, then all the pods appeared and finally it is getting green leaves, too. A strange tree indeed!
Beautiful hibiscus, the orange/peachy colored one looks like Jane Cowell. Nice tree.
ReplyDeleteI love your hibiscus, Im also collecting hibiscus..so far have only 3. The first one is our National flower, big red bloom.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the second photo. Hibiscus don't do too great in Ireland (too cold for them).
