{Hibiscus 'Kona' - Hibiscus rosa-sinensis hybrid}

On June 15, Pieter did make a beautiful photo of our Hibiscus 'Kona' a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis hybrid that produced this year's first bloom.
We do have this beauty for years already and it goes inside the greenhouse during the winter.
Ours came from +Logee's Greenhouses and they still have this Hibiscus 'Kona' (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis hybrid) ←just click it.
But for being able to make more photos, I did wait in vain... On July 10, there was one floppy looking big bloom. So below I show you photos from August, 2010.
Color looks different here as well... could be camera related?
Perfect light...
Such a tropical beauty!
We sure do hope to see more blooms later...

    Today, you show us one of the most beautiful flowers over the world. What a pity, they only live one day more or less.
    Hugs dear Mariette.

    Wunderschön blüht der Hibiscus, liebe Mariette, wir haben auch einen im Garten, aber seine weißen Blüten zeigt er uns noch nicht.

    Ich grüße Dich herzlich und wünsche Euch ein schönes Wochenende mit viel Wohlgefühl

    What a beauty! Not the typical hibiscus I have image in my mind, but it sure has got this tropical look :-) The petals look very soft and warm. I do hope you get more blooms!
    P.S. I got coconut sugar recently. LOVE it! I've been enjoying it in my coffee :-)

    Your hibiscus is so beautiful. I like those fragile pink petals in the sunlight!
    I read your former posts yesterday and today. Although, sometimes it is not easy for me to understand your writing, I really enjoyed them. Sorry my English skill is not enough to read at times, but I am glad to get to know about you from reading your many posts.
    I am glad to hear that you once visited Japan and you still keep your 18 years Toyota car.
    I look forward to visiting you again! Have a happy new week.(*^_^*).
