look what i found yesterday morning, it's actually red, the flash must have affected it. I can't take another as it's gone over already

I thought it wouldn't open because the stem had collapsed but it must be a toughie

Lovely to see these summer flowers still going. Bit strange as well All my big poppies are growing but that is just leaves. I am going to check them for buds but I think there will be none.

Wasn't sure where to put this photo - I was given this hibiscus for my birthday and both of these flowers are growing off one stem!

That is a bit of luck Jasmine - I have never seen that before. I wonder what would happen if you took cuttings - would the same thing happen.

Or might it just be a fluke? It'll be interesting to see what colour the next flowers to come out are.

Who knows, - perhaps it is a sport - you may have a totally new variety....you could name it after yourself!!!

Er yes, Hibiscus 'Jasmine'. That should confuse a few folk! It will be interesting to see what happens with it next Jasmine.

I thought it had a ring about it Ruthie! ;D But you are right - it would be confusing!

Those are beautiful Jasmine, lovely leaves too very healthy looking. How strange to have 2 different colours, I've seen it happen with Dahalia before and I think something else but can't remember what.
