Native hibiscus
Like bold bells of lavender
Like sweet wishing wells

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Your hibiscus is beautiful. I'm impressed that it bloomed through winter's rain, cold.
Such a lovely flower, looks a bit shy as it peaks out from under the other buds.
A very lovely hibiscus, the color is so beautiful.
A beautiful survivor!
I love this variety of Hibiscus, it is probably the only kind I like actually, Gemma you took such a great shot!
Gorgeous flower this hibiscus Gemma. The two colors are a perfect combination of nature's fashion show. Thank you so much for sharing it.
