Gorgeous hibiscus everyone!!!!

Here are a couple of my blooms - the White Wings is playing hide and seek.


The other one I do not know the name, but it is a special one from my sister - she just cut off a stick and stuck it in the dirt and ShaZam now it is blooming for me, so I just call it Carrie's Hibiscus. This is the second year I have had it and it is the first bloom. It was late in the afternoon when I took this shot so it is starting to close.

Also all of the Rose of Sharons are blooming
I have over 4 dozen at least, over 100 seedlings
Multiple colors

All White, all White - ruffle flower, white w/red center, purple - multiple shades, red - ruffled flower

All grown from twigs 1-2' high or seed
The last pic is along the pool fence
They are being cut off just above the 5' fence as an 8' pergola will be built

I'm missing blue...still looking for one
