This year, we planted three Hibiscus bushes which are geared toward Colorado's crazy climate. They are hardy down to 20 degrees below zero. If it gets down to 20 degrees below zero, the Hibiscus and I will be looking for a warmer place to call home.
The tag on the plants say that they should start blooming mid-July.
Today I came home to this treat!
So beautiful, Belinda Spillman ! In Texas many flowers don't last because of the heat.

I have Hibiscus in our backyard as well, Belinda Spillman . They haven't bloomed yet this year, but do have buds.

Pretty! We have several Hibiscus plants and they bloom almost all year here and I love it!

Really beautiful, Belinda. I've never tried to grow a Hibiscus. I don't know why, they usually do pretty well here.

Belinda,
Simply gorgeous! We have hot pink one around us, and many of the city streets around here have them also. They are delight. A

Hi Belinda - Lovely photo. I'm just miserable at plant recognition, so I have to admit I clicked on your post to see - once again - what a hibiscus looked like. Just don't ask me to pick it out of a line-up tomorrow.

That looks like one of the hybrids with a Rose of Sharon unless the perspective shows it to be bigger in the picture that actual. Lovely.

Very pretty Belinda Spillman, I have two of them and they bloom all year in my area.

Hi Belinda,
One of the things I like about each season is all the "firsts" ! Enjoy your beautiful Hibiscus.

Belinda- we do have hibiscus here (a favorite food of iguanas) but I have never seen one that color! Glorious.

Oh what a bloom. That is beautiful and looks like you will be having many more blooms for years to come.

It is so fun to see flowers blooming! That reminds me, I need to go out and take a photo of our sunflower plant that bloomed. Thanks for sharing your flower! -Kasey

Hi Belinda... I love hibiscus bushes. I have a plant that I've been putting on my front porch for at least four years now and take it in during the winter. Every so often it looks like it's on death's doorstep and then revives. Love seeing my pink flowers pop up.

I did not even know that they grow that far north! Thanks for the education. We are spoiled down here with our variety of plants that bloom all year round.

Hi Belinda -- 20 below zero --- that's definitely not flip-flop weather, right?
That is beautiful, I hope that many more will bloom very soon! I do love me some hibiscus tea!
