Hibiscus Blooms in January

A couple of mornings ago and in our mild January weather, I found my hibiscus plant just blooming away!

I decided to let you take a peek...






I'm really thrilled! These are my very first hibiscus plants and they made the move quite well, even in a huge moving van. The movers were not too happy with moving the huge and heavy pots, but they did! I was happy. I am just so tickled to see all of these blooms! Aren't they gorgeous?

I'll be back soon, am really working hard on my header! I'm not a professional, but I love a challenge! Have to admit, I'm having fun. It just may take me awhile!

Have a great week!

    Nancy, what a beautiful flower. I used to plant a new plant out front every spring because they die here in the winter. I see that nice pool, too.

    They are lovely! I can only imagine how tickled you are that you took the pains to move them and they payoff when they bloomed :-)

    Ahhhh... life is settling back down. You are blogging again. I'll show David your hibiscus plant. He'll be so jealous. He LoVes hibiscus. He'll be fretting now wondering why his have not bloomed. I have no green thumb so I just have to enjoy everyone else's beautiful gardens.
    Enjoyed the play date with Jen and our grandchildren!!

    Here I am again... I just have to say that I "know" that hen on the left. She's watched over you in the kitchen (as IF you need "watching over") for quite a few years. It's part of that collection that you and I had for years. Lookin' good. Your bright yellow-gold is so fun.
