More hibiscus

This flower is growing in my son's garden. Not that he planted it - nor is he likely to nuture it. It grows. It is neglected. I've had them growing in my garden from time to time, and I quite like them, but they are not my favourite garden flower.

However, I have found someone who lives not far from here that specialises in Hibiscus - and I'm all set to visit and take photos of his gloriously huge blooms. His daughter brought some to put on the table at a function recently and I was very impressed with the huge size and brilliant colours. Unfortinately he has been sick in hospital so I will wait until he is feeling better and go visit with my camera.

Another Hibiscus

I am glad to house sit - especially if there are some good flowers in the garden. I usually take some Gerberas with me from the Farm, but I'm happy to have some good flowers at the house to admire too.

This one is also from the house at Lamb Island.

Hibiscus

This is a beautiful Hibiscus from a garden on Lamb Island where I have done some housesitting. The garden there is quite new - just a couple of years old and has some very interesting blooms in it. Hibiscus are a flower that is more often associated with Hawaii but they grow very well here in Australia, particularly in the hotter parts.
