More Dear-------Cute pun

Ok I do this pic every year. It's just one of those---Geeee I love this deals. Once a year this Monster Gaint Hibicus goes completely nuts and looks like this. Flowers are up to 14 inches round. She will bloom the rest of the year until the first frost. And the good looking gal is the Boss---aka SWMBO.

Thanks folks ---this flower bed was full of Yucca Plants for many years----We spent three days digging then up and moving them to make room for these. The Hibicus is 4 years old and is getting a great root system developed. These get cut off at the ground every year.

Becca -----the flower is called a Lord Baltimore.
We have several different types of Hibicus growing around the place but this is by far our favorite.
