It is always a spring pleasure when this plant blooms...

Here's a pic of the whole plant. It is about 2 years old now and I purchased it in the hanging basket, it was about half this size then and bloomed only 2-3 blooms that year.
I plan to repot it after it finishes blooming this year . Just to straighten the plant up a little better in the pot.

darius- I did go out and measure the bloom on it today after it completely opened and it's about 8-9 inches across from tip/tip. The bud is about 10 inches long give or take a bit, before it opens.

Hibiscus-I know they like to be root bound before they bloom so even a small cutting would bloom in a 2 inch pot if taken from a mature branch that bloomed once before.
