Hibiscus

I just love these flowering plants! They make me think of a remote, tropical place so bright and beautiful! When I was pregnant with Hannah and Aidan, I had this pitiful tiny little hibiscus that sat out front. The day we went for our 20 week ultrasound and discovered we would be the parents of TWO babies that plant had two blooms on it for the first time ever. Definitely one of those "God wink" occurrences and I sure wish I knew what I did with the photos. This year I decided to get a hibiscus tree and I've been trying to protect the poor thing from the crazy winds we've had lately. Sam's had orange, pink and red and although I LOVE pink, I decided to go with orange because they're just so darn pretty. Well imagine my surprise when I walked outside yesterday and saw both orange AND bright pink!!
