HIBISCUS GLORY

My Hibiscus just getting bigger every year,it's amazing how it started off from a sprig no bigger than your finger, this plant has been in the family for years, we all got a sprig from mom's original plant, the picture doesn't do it justic as it is a deeper pink , almost red








This is a side view, as you can see it is fully loaded all the way around

Pretty plant. I love hibiscus plants. Even when I think a freeze has got mine they make their comeback.

Hydrageas are wonderful bloomers, aren't they! We have about 6 on our front patio that make a hedge to hide the street. They are just lovely! I love your apron post, too! Brings back memories! Pink Hugs, Patti

Helen, that is one beautiful plant and so healthy! I love how it started out from your mom's bush and blossomed under your care to form your own. It reminds me of the love our parents have for us that is passed down the line!

Happy Pink Saturday...

I don't believe that I have ever seen a hibiscus that big before. You must have a Pink thumb.
