WTG tiG....the more the merrier.

Wow, it's beautiful. I love the raspberry red color, fluted edges, and "simonized" shine! Did you "wax" it before taking the picture? :~) Just kiddin'. It's hard to have "just one", isn't it?!
I've never seen a tropical hibiscus I didn't like. This one is a beaut. You guys should have seen the blooms Kyle brought with him yesterday. A pumpkin orange hibiscus and another one that was white with a hit of pink. Gorgeous. Jim really liked the nearly black day lily with a yellow center. The plumeria blooms smelled great and I learned that if you pick any of these flowers early in the morning, they will keep out of water the whole day. When I went inside last night, they were still laying on a table on the deck looking just like new. Couldn't believe it.
Kyle,
You are having a terrible effect of us. I awakened and found I love hibiscus. I don't know if it took on Tig but if you keep showing those lovelies--I will have to have some. YIKS!!!!!
