our Hibiscus gives a new bloom almost everyday, a wonderful plant to have and enjoy.

Beautiful. Like the detail in the bloom, yet it still looks soft, like a flower should IMO.

Terrific shot, even if I sit looking outside at pending snow or rain or anyway it is cold here. Not freezing yet, but we are within a few degrees. It won't be long.

well that's not fair, it seems like summer just started up there, bundle up for a long winter I guess.

A pleasant shot, old buddy. I love the color of Biscuit and appreciate that she has no thorns.

No thorns for us Jer, they tend to stick around too much for a plant.

Beautiful flower - probably smell too sweet enough, I think there can be a lot of shots with insects!

they don't seem to attract insects at all for some reason and hummingbirds don't seem to be interested either. Not sure why?

isn't that cute, my great granddaughter heard us talking about the hibiscus and what pretty yellow flowers they have. She mistook the name and when passing by the plant always said "Hi Biscuit" so we adopted the name Biscuit.
