They are certainly pretty plants, Tim. Bit hard to live in Hawaii and not have hibiscus, is it? I asume you would have lots of them there, as they are sinonymous with tropics here (Nth Qld).

Yes we do Glenda but sometimes we take them for granted because there are so much around. Also the hibiscus the our state's flower.
