The old-fashioned red flowering Hibiscus

Give it another twenty years, Meanie and it will be fabulous! I think this particular shrub is at least that old.

Unlikely I fear!

Never mind, it will still be lovely no matter the size.

Crissue, I'm lucky because mine bloom all year round. I have quite a few 'Snowflake' and 'Roseflake' varieties of the rosa-sinensis and they my most reliable bloomers on this dry spot.

Homebird, I know it can take quite some time in a climate like yours. Hang in there!

It's very beautiful! The millions of Hibiscus trees/shrubs are all in full bloom here, now.
