Hibiscus, another favorite of mine. I have several, this is one I just added this spring. The folaige as you can see is tinted red, so it is pretty even when it is not blooming. Hibiscus is another easy care plant. It does like to be fed and likes more water than some plants. it will survive dry periods, it just won't bloom as nice. I have a beautiful large flowered white flowers, however it dose not get extra water and although it is still alive it is small and the flowers have also gotten very small. I think I will try and move it next spring, or maybe even this fall. Next time I will tell you all about an exotic potted plant I have that is blooming now, Lady of the Night.
