Nice hibiscus pics. They make a really good drink out of the flowers in the Caribbean.

If you are talking about the drink "Sorrel" or "Agua de Jamaica", they use Hibiscus sabdariffa (Roselle) and it is made from the calyx after the flower fades.

Well, not really in my 'garden' per se, but it's blooming and it stinks! Amorphophallus konjac bloom just opened today.

Nice. I'm still waiting for my A. Konjac and A. Paeoniifolius to break dormancy.

I just noticed that 5 of the beans I planted 3/9 are blooming! (I've replanted 3x due to awful germination; these are the 1st bunch.) This is a very fast bush bean but I often don't harvest within the 45 days. I may this year!

Woke up this mornin' to discover my Osage orange has blooms!



This is from a seed I found from an ancient tree from my local park deeeep in the woods.
I tried germinating about 50 other seeds but IDK, thinkin' maybe I got to the fruit too late.
Got one other tree planted in different soil that seems to be doing okay but this one in the picture is definently a keeper.... Not sure where I'm going to put this spam fruit yet... But its' legend will live on!
edit: just dirt on them leaves.
