Default Cottonwood - Hibiscus Tiliaceus

Woke up this morning to find my first hibiscus flower in half-bloom. A
gorgeous butter yellow papery flower with a brown center & yellow pollen on
brown stamen. Now the only question is - do I cut it off so the plant can
concentrate it's energy into producing roots or do I leave it alone?

Does anyone have a mature specimen? I would like some shots to see what

mine
will hopefully look like in a couple of years


I'm sure I bought the last one left in Perth, I certainly deserve to have
the last one considering the run-around I was sent on this morning! It's
amazing how hard these things are to come by. They're not cheap either. I
think I may have been ripped off paying $49 for a 20cm pot, but I'm a

happy
gardener now that I've finally got one
