I start collecting Tropical hibiscus this year.
This is my first bloom.
I wish you will like it.
Blueberry Thrill
Hard to say how happy I am!
Congratulations, it's beautiful!!
Karen
I collect lots of rare blub plants.
You can see Worsleya Rayneri in the pictures.
If you are interested in rare bulbs and collect some hibiscus.
I will be very happy to know you.
Thanks,Karen.
Now the flower is getting bigger.
Purple is deeper.
Beautiful pics, Courbet!!! Glad your first one has opened :-)
Thanks,amarantha00.
Here is the little lovely one for you.
Today two flowers open.
Who is it?
I didn't see this post before.
A beautiful bloom and a great variety. I didn't know that Dupont's varieties can be found in Taiwan.
The last one you're asking for is Herm Geller.

Thanks,Carlos.
I try so hard to get these hibiscus.
Now it is the show time.
Hope you will enjoy them.

Lovely colors, very soft. I really like it but I think it is wrong labelled. Anna Nicole is different. These are pictures of Anna Nicole sent to this forum

Courbet, I can say you now that what you have as "Anna Nicole" is actually "Wallflower".

Carlos
Thanks,carlo05
Left one is Wallflower,but the right one came from Hibiscusplace.
It marks Anna Nicole.
I will take more pictures of it for you to check again.
Regards
Courbet
As you are the only one who can watch them in live, don't they look the same for you? At least they do for me looking at the picture. In that case, both plants would be Wallflower.

Hi
Please check it.
Closer.
I lost its name.
One more.
My first Cajun blue
Almost no colors on the flower.
I like it.
Cajun blue
Like a Tulip
Do you like it?
The kids love it.
Yesterday they bloomed together.
There are two flowers in my garden today.
wow and I thought my hibiscus bushes had cool flowers!
Are all hibiscus edible ?
I have a red foot tortoise that would most likely love to eat on them
Hey how big is the Blueberry Thrill bloom - it looks HUGE!?
Beautiful flowers, Courbet! I love the pic of your girls with the opening bloom! That's a classic picture.
All h. rosa-sinensis are edible, Kyle, and several other species of hibiscus too. Roots, stems, leaves, flowers, everything. They're actually nutritious - full of anti-oxidants, and really good for reptiles as long as they don't have any pesticide residues on them. Charlie used to send leaves to quite a few reptile people, and has sent hibiscus to the San Diego Zoo too. We researched it pretty intensely when our young black lab developed an insatiable addiction for eating hibiscus! After all our research, we decided his addiction was bad for our emotional health, but apparently very good for the puppy's physical health. :-)

Ha ha ha Cindy too funny about your black lab liking the hibiscus. I know a couple reptile people and the lizards (bearded dragons, iguanas etc.) LOVE the hibiscus. I tried to serve a rather huge 11" bloom to my family on top of the salad bowl and everyone except me and my youngest picked AROUND the bloom - initially they thought I had really lost my marbles serving flowers with the salad! LOL
Wow, just gorgeous pictures. You must just love them!
Dear Cindyhib,Ultimateshopper,Fla_Chick and Kyle33541,
Thank you for enjoying my hibiscus.
Here we usually use the leaves of Hibiscus tiliaceus to pack food.
But we don't eat them.
And we eat this:

Hi,Ultimateshopper
The Blueberry thrill are about 20cm.
Bigger than a child's face.
Courbet
This one is big too.
The sun is going down.
So it looks darker.
This is cute and will change its color from orange to yellow.
