First blossom of the year! This is Maui, me and my mom bought her years ago and she manages to come back every year even through the rugged conditions of Texas! One of the toughest plants I’ve ever had. She is so pretty and reminds me of mom. To anyone in Texas looking for a pretty flower that will withstand the conditions a hibiscus is perfect! #CrimsoneyedRosemallow

I’ve brought my #ChineseHibiscus inside for the winter, and they are still blooming like crazy! Diana here keeps blessing me with double blooms. I think they like the succulent light I put over them! 🤗🌺🌿 And, since Benny and Bonnie the frogs are semi hibernating, here is a picture of my brother @Borophyll and SIL’s newly adopted calico kittens, Amelia and Simone. How cute are they?! 😍🥰 #PetsAndPlants #HappyPlants #Hibiscus #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #Blooming #FloweringPlants #GregGang #babevila
