This is my favourite red Hibiscus, its flowers are double and as big as a dessert plate. It is very hardy too.
I always liked this Cuban variety; its striking colours of yellow and red; easily propagated from cuttings.
Isobel Beard is a little diva, only shows off her gorgeous flowers when she wants to.
Hawaiian elephant ear grows to a tall bush; wonderful, big double flowers kissed with pink.As it is the height of summer I thought I let some of my Hibiscus show of their hot, loud and proud flowers.

Lovely hibiscus blooms. I had the Isobel Beard, whose name I learnt from your post. That hibiscus is not only shy, but sensitive to over watering.

Stunning flowers and photos! The Cuban variety is wonderful with the vivid hues, but the Isobel Beard is my favorite, so delicate.

ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful New Year! Up here we're clear of all the flooding thank goodness. I do hope you're all safe and sound. It continues to be wet though ... lots of rain still!
