While on the subject of red
The intense desert heat is pretty hard a many flowering plants, but the hardy hibiscus keeps on blooming. This one is right outside my bedroom window and is still producing blooms every day.
A gorgeous hibiscus. I remember growing one in Cairns that was so delicate. Wish I could remember the name. We see them here too but they don't have the beauty of yours.
