Heavenly Hibiscus!

Oh no, no, no....

Not the Vodka Cocktail or Hibiscus Tea, but my heavenly and gorgeous Hibiscus Flowers! They are a sight to see!

 Each day, there are even more buds!
 Look at the frilly edges...

Oh my, I can't believe it! 
 I  have had my plants for two years, first time that this particular hibiscus plant has bloomed! 
I'm elated~



They are just blooming profusely and are out of this world gorgeous, aren't they?


I could not stand it, I just had to join Tootsie and 
Flaunt My Flowers!


Join Tootsie and Flaunt your Flowers~




Have a wonderful weekend!

    Nancy, Your Hibiscus is a knockout!! I love how you have it combined with the sweetpotato vines.
    You've inspired me to get a hibiscus this year. I had a "cantaloupe" colored one several years ago but haven't had one since. Love the color of yours. I'm on my way to check out Tootsie's site. Thanks and have a great weekend.

    Those are beautiful! The color is so pretty and how you have the other foliage in the post with it looks wonderful!

    I put some in a couple of years ago that were supposed to be able to withstand the winters in our zone. They didn't make it :-(

    Happy Weekend!

    Oh it is so gorgeous. I love the color and I agree, they are the prettiest flowers. I have two and one of them bit the dust with our really cold winter, the other is struggling but I so hope it makes it. Thanks for sharing, it is stunning. Hugs, Marty

    I love how they wake up and open each day and "sleep" at night. Yours are lovely.
