Peach hibiscus open...finally!

Well, surprise!!!...this morning the peach hibiscus were opening! I thought they never would!! It has been months of only reaching the bud stage and then they die off. Now, I have an abundance. I think they are very susceptible to water, heat,and sun. Tempermental little buggers!!! They are some pretty doubles though!

  1. My camellias will always wait out a cold spell before they will open, maybe they were doing that.
