Happy September everyone! Farmer D, your Island Queen is an amazing bloom and that Rodeo Drive is such a stunner! Nice Flickering Flame too! I got that cv as a 6" in spring and it has yet to form a bud for me yet, but its a beautiful bush. It has the shiniest green leaves of all the cv's I own! I hope to squeeze a bloom out of that one before the season is over here. Erny, that slapstick is out of control! I love it! And your Cinnamon Splendor is gorgeous. You inspired me to get that cv as I snagged a 6" in the update yesterday.  Capt J, your Rainbow Sherbet triplets put on a great show! Beautiful! Here are some from my "jungle".... LOL High Voltage, Moon Shadow, Sky, and Fire and Ice. |

A few more photos. Another bloom on Appassionatta! I didn't think this would bloom until today, but as usual it bloomed yesterday while I was at work. I had hoped to catch it as it first opened to get the best color, but its still an amazing and intense color bloom. There is another bud about to open today or tomorrow, and I will be watching it like a hawk! LOL
Also a day 1 and day 2 picture of Too Hot To Handle. The day 1 pic I sort of cheated and forced the bloom open before I left for work. Such a vibrant bloom, even on day 2! Very appropriately named!

Here are my HVH plants - all pruned back. I work out of the country. so when I get home in 4-1/2 weeks, I am expecting crazy blooms. In the Galveston heat, they are drip watered 2 times a day, plus 1 short spritzing shower.

Hello, All...
I've long admired the outstanding photos that members of the HVH Forum have posted and have been looking forward to the opportunity to introduce myself. This is my first post to the HVH Forum and I want to thank all of you in advance for creating such an inspiring and welcoming platform of interaction among hibiscus enthusiasts. In a short period of time I've no doubt become an addict to the awesomeness that is the hibiscus plant...your motivating exchanges and full of pride photos show the great growers you are, and I look forward to joining the fun!
I have many HVH cultivars purchased this year and have even had a few flowers, now that I know how to capture them in a file size small enough to post, I'll be looking forward to sharing. For today, a few of my favorites that have been strong bloomers this summer...Grand Opening, Love Bite, & Evangeline...enjoy!
JC
