Gene
Hi Gene,
Thank you, and yes you are right. Sweet Talk is one of Barrys. It is one of my favorites also.
I was at his place the day after you were there I believe. I've been hearing a lot of good things about you. Maybe we can meet one of these days.
Gene
Thank you Gene. It would be my pleasure to get together one of these days. By the way I really like the seedlings you have posted they are beautiful!!!
Robert
Well I am not sure how I missed this one but I did. The biggest I have ever seen her. she usually blooms at 6 to 7 inches. I put the bloom on a 10" paper plate to take the PIC.
Creole Belle
Bwah! Robert, I still don't have Creole Bell (or, at least I don't think I do). You are teasing me again!
Purple magic is looking especially pretty today.
I took some yesterday and today, but since bathroom and family room are/were being redone, had to (and still have to) clean up the dust, before I dare take my camera out of it's safety area.
Will hopefully post by Weds.
I sure do like that Sweet Talk. Creole Bell is a beaut. too. Nice pictures all the way around.
Creole Bell is beautiful - I really love Georgia Pearl's look too!
Here are my pics for the last 3 days, probably, in alphabetical order:
Burnished Gold
Campfire Girl
Tangerine Dream-1
Gabriel.
Robert, I love this one.
Lions Lair
Madelyn
Moonstruck
peach capitilo
Pink Garden Variety
Plum Crazy, showing her pinks
Snow Queen
Susan Schlueter
Tarantella
Tangerine-2
Tomahawk
And, last for today, Topaz Glory
I especially love Gabriel...another one for the wish list!
Unfortunately I just finished getting almost all of my plants into my greenhouse yesterday, and it is jam packed, I don't see how I could fit any more in there. So if I want more hibiscus, I need to get rid of some of my other tropicals so I have room!
Great pictures, Cat. I still like Tangerine Dream, a lot.
Good looking bunch of blooms cat and the photography is great. If I had to pick a favorite I guess it would Susan Schlueter the bloom is great and so is the lady.
Gene
Liz,
I think I Have a solution. Buy another greenhouse :)
I thought of that too--unfortunately to do that, I'd have to remove a garden bed, and I really don't want to do that either! Or buy a new house with a bigger lot, but I can already barely afford the place I have now!
Now that I've got my hibbies in the greenhouse where it gets nice and hot during the day, they're all starting to pop out blooms again!
Here's Lady Bug yesterday
And today I had one from Lost Treasure
And a first time bloom from Chads
I'd like some second opinions on whether this actually is Chads though--it was supposed to be a mini and have more yellow in it (I know I've seen my colors vary widely, but the blooms look maybe a bit too large for a mini, and the flower looks an awful lot like my Lady Bug from yesterday)
And this isn't technically a hibiscus, but it's related and it's pretty and bloomed for the first time for me today, so I thought I'd share!
Phymosia umbellata
Pretty blooms, ecrane. I like the last one, too.
Hi Cat & Ecrane,
All very pretty blooms. My Hibs are loving the cooler weather and the colors are lasting much longer. Just a few to show.
Voodoo Magic
