Amazing beauty in your flowers.

Oh, they let hibiscus grow so tall, and with flowers and buds hanging down like that, it must be quite a view.... ~bangchik
Selamat Hari Mereka!
That is a beautiful fire with one mouthful of a name.
Happy Independence Day, Autumn Belle! That hibiscus is breathtaking. -Jean
You are surrounded by loveliness when walking through that arbor! I like the color of the blossoms and wonder if they're scented?
Beautiful pictures of a beautiful plant. Have a wonderful independence day!
Beautiful blooms.

I dont think I've ever seen a hibicus that looks like that one...how exotic and beautiful.
Very unique hibiscus you got there. Happy Merdeka Day!

Seen on My World Tuesday
Say it loud in the Hibiscus's way: Selamat Hari Merdeka.
Gorgeous flowers.
Hello Autumn Belle - that 'long tongued' hibiscus is surely out of this world. Stunning

Happy Independence Day Autumn Belle! That hibiscus is an old world hibiscus, they were around long before the bigger and fancier ones. It is still a charmer and it seems resistant to many of the pests that plague that family.
Happy Merdeka! The hibiscus is surely pretty, curly and whirly!!
Beautiful choice for this meme! I saw H. schizopetalus at a nursery recently and so wished I had room for one. This garden has gotten too full.
Hello AutumnBelle
I hope you are having a relaxing independance day celebration.
I have to say that never ever have I seen such a beautiful hibiscus as this. Spectacular is the only word to describe it.
The plant world is amazing! That hibiscus doesn't look like any of its cousins that grow in my part of the world. Thanks for sharing photos of a gorgeous, exotic flower.
Nothing compares to that Hibiscus! I have a rubber stamp of Hibiscus and I used to make cards with it. Maybe I will get it out again.
Lovely!
Hi, Autumn Belle, Happy Independence Day!! What a stunning hibiscus! Pam
Hibiscus can really change any garden. I have six species, the oddest one: Hibiscus Cannabinus...
Nice post...
It looks like a Gumamela :) Can we use the petals to create bubbles too? :)
Happy Independence Day, Autumn Belle! I love the dainty, delicate look of this hibiscus. And your photographs are fabulous!
I haven't seen a hibiscus garden in these parts...love the idea! What a great place to visit--- that must be!
I've never seen a hibiscus like that - you can see where it got its name from. Nice photos.
I have not seen this hibiscus, it is facing towards the ground! How interesting!
Hello,
Wow !!! Beautiful flowers.
AB what a truly stunning plant.
This is the first time I've seen such type of hibiscus...very interesting
That Hibiscus is extraordinary - so delicate. Its size is amazing. I keep them in pots and fear for them on the dark winter days.
Love this elegant beauty! As usual, you've done great justice with your splendid photography, A.Belle!
I've always loved these flowers and I'm lucky enough to have this plant in my yard here on Oahu, Hawaii. Didn't know their name though, so thanks for sharing!
