    Very nice. These have never been my favorite flowers, but I’ve seen some wonderful pictures of them on blogs this summer (and now fall, including this one), and I think I like them a lot!

    Great shot. Whenever I hear Rose of Sharon I always think of the bible.

    The colour of hibiscus is so overwhelming, I can’t get enough of it!
    Thanks for visiting my blog and joining me walking through Stadtpark!

    I like this pink shade. My rose of Sharon is kinda blue. Oh, well, if I had the pink one I’d probably prefer the blue one. ;-) The only way to solve the problem will be to purchase a pink one just like yours.
