I bought a hibiscus bush a couple of months ago at a flea market. When I bought it it had a red bloom on it. Much to my surprise it now has red and yellow flowers on it. I haven't seen this before. Have you?
My day today is going pretty good. I add to my blog, no problems there, and I am currently trying to answer my notifications. I hope I catch up with them.
I also have been lucky enough to add a couple of pages to my book. Yeah!
What is going on with all of you beautiful people out in myLotland?

Your plant must be a hybrid? grafted? I've heard the see from hybrids are not fertile but not sure if this is even true. How would these plants reproduce if so? It's very pretty. I haven't had good luck with hibiscus in the past, but I was working then so maybe not enough time. They are supposed to be easy to grow. The flowers are beautiful.

i'd a red hibiscus some years back. kept such'n a pot so's could bring 't 'ndoors fer winter. 'fter 'bout 5 years, i'd the same shock - a yellow hibiscus blossom! thought such 'twas jest a fluke. wondered if'n the plant'd been grafted, kinda like fruit trees?
glad ya got'cher bloggin' schtuff goin' well. bonus to get'cha some written'n yer book, too.
'tis startin' to cloud'p a bit here 'n i've fingers crossed fer some moisture to fall. aint gonna hold my breathe though, lol.

I thought I might have a mutant bush. It does look odd with two different flowers but I love it. As for the blog, I have so much to learn. Right now it's a good day f I can get a little on there without losing it along the way. But, 8i am learning along the way.

Wow, what a pretty Hibiscus! I thought they only had one color of flowers on each plant.
Oh that's great about making progress on your book.
Today my 2 year old granddaughter is spending the day with me. We do this every 2 weeks.

That bush is small now but someday it will be big.
