It is a beautiful example. A double one too. A great colour and a great shot.
That is a really pretty hibiscus, I love the soft coral color. I see a few here in the summer months but they don't like our winters at all, only a summer treat for us. But since I don't care for the humidity I'll just enjoy your photos.
Awesome photography as always and then your new scrapbook techniques.
You are truly blessed to have a photographers back yard for capturing all of GOD's beauty.
Its bitter cold here.
It is very pretty.
Something tropical is just what I need right now. It's 18 degrees and still snowing.
Very pretty Hibiscus, love the color of it
Just lovely my Dear...
But I too, could not take the humidity. -sigh-

i like your brutal honesty for those of us who were going to be very jealous that you have them year 'round. i guess i'll keep the store-bought seasonal ones... :)
Hi Sandra, its nice to see such beauty all year. I love the soft tangerine colors. They look like double or triple hibiscus.
~:)
I love their apricot color! And how lucky to have all year round!
Thanks for a day brightener. Hibiscus are so beautiful in color, shape and texture and you have captured it all.
Have to say your comment on my post left me envious of you and your hubby's self-discipline in limiting fast food!
Such pretty shots. The humidity really does a number on my hair!
Hope you have a nice day. We are at 29 degrees at 11 a.m. and it is so windy! Ugh!
They are beautiful! I can't imagine anything that beautiful growing here in January (outside, that is....)
I love hisbiscus--and the color of yours is gorgeous...
Snow here today and 14 degrees when we got up... Brrrrrr.
Hugs,
Betsy
You are a wise woman bringing it in. I would do the same. Gorgeous flower and what a great color! Reminds me of a creamsicle. Cold up here today but I can live a little vicariously through your pics.
I love it but I could never stand the heat and humidity. The 'H' word just wipes me out and I get bitchy real fast. I don't think I could ever get used to it.
So you are still growing in Florida right now. It's so pretty and I love the color too. Not the humidity. Wonder if you dried that out you could make tea?

Beautiful peach hibiscus. All of my red hibiscus are gone for now.
I love having flowers in the house. It immediately brightens my day to see pretty flowers.
Are you enjoying our 50 degrees with sunshine today? I love it! There will be a fire in the fireplace tonight. :)
I never thought of you as a cruel person, but showing these beautiful blossoms on a day when it is cold with snow on the ground comes pretty darn close to crossing the line.
I have had hibiscus in green teas, which were very good.
What a beautiful flower, especially in January!
It's so pretty, I love the color.
Great post.
I like the new soft ware.
what a beauty....great photos....that color is just awesome...
It is beautiful...laying on the ground of even getting on my knees on the ground is beyond me...
Very pretty Sandra ~ love the color!

Great idea to bring to the table!
It's a beautiful flower Sandra! I know it wouldn't make it here in West Virginia where it is currently 33 degrees at 7 pm!
Breath taking colors and images . all of them. I love your comp.
All the best in this the New Year.
What an incredible, tempermental flower. Lovely.
