A Hibiscus

Just Call Her "Lili"
Trade Wind Memories Drift Loose
Beauty Continues

***************

Mis‑labeled by HVH as “liliflorus.”

Likely descended from an old Hawaiian garden hibiscus, her original cultivar name is lost to history. Far from the islands, she now blooms in January in our living room in the Mid‑West.
