Re: A Hibiscus A Day....
Still blooming! I have these in full sun too. Very unusual for a variegated plant to love the heat and sun this much.

Re: A Hibiscus A Day....

~JaNan No. Damnedest thing I've seen in a long while. I was shocked the first time I got both blooms. Blue River II is supposed to have the pure white blooms, and that's what I bought! Thanks- I'll pass your comment along to Mom.

Re: A Hibiscus A Day....
A double orange Rosa sinensis, variety unknown, This was a bargain, that I got in a local supermarket. A standard (single stem, like a little tree) in a 10 inch container, for $12.00. That's about half the price of Home Depot, or Lowes. Nowadays, with the fuel surcharges, (44%, a couple of weeks ago) I probably could not have gotten it up here from a Florida grower for much loess, and when you bring them up on the truck, you have to buy a load of them.

Re: A Hibiscus A Day....
I love orange and yellow tropicals! Beautiful shots!
yesterday in the garden. If they look a little droopy, it was 101 F, with a Heat Index of 108! I was a bit droopy myself!

Re: A Hibiscus A Day....
Very very nice. I love them. That swan one is so neat tho. Never saw a white one before. Im trying to get more white into the garden. As of now I only have one white flowering plant and it only blooms in the morning. I think white flowers would look so neat at night. Thanks for posting your great plants.
