Hibiscus display
 
Hi to all

Today I went to a display of hibiscus', what can I say but the colours &
shapes were magnificent.
This was the West Aust hibiscus societys annual exhibition and is well worth
the effort. These people are happy to discuss & guide you with growing these
flowers etc.
I just love them & I came home with a few I hadnt seen before.
cheers
Sandra

Yes a lot of people kinda despise Hibiscus. But they come in a great variety of shapes as well as flower colour. I think they're great for a small tree shape in cottage gardens and if aphids are around they'll get 'em which means that ladybird larvae breed up a lot as well and that's a plus for vegie growers. They're also good as a link plant leading from a tropical area of garden into a cottagey style.

Hi
No but I found what I was looking for, Luna red is like a tuberous begonia,
dies off in winter so I got what appears to be what I looked at & its called
Mollies ?; they are out in the garden & its raining.
The colours were beautiful; I will send you the name so you can look it up.
cheers
