...and I bought me a new plant over the weekend
I've been so jealous of my mom's amazing Hibiscus, that I had to have one of my own
Isn't it beautiful
8" blooms and sooooo many buds yet to open :)
What type of hydrangea, Jackie. I have an endless summer hydrangea, which I moved this year. And it's not doing any better in its new location. Now, my Annabelle hydrangea, that's flourished for several years.
ReplyDeleteThe hibiscus is gorgeous. Are you going to winter this over?
I cant remember the kind of hydrangea, It's on the south side of my house, it always looks healthy but wont bloom :(
DeleteThe hibiscus is called a "hardy hibiscus", I just need to cover it during winter, hopefully it'll come back next year. My mom does nothing to hers in the winter and it comes back every year. I'll cross my fingers :)
The hibiscus is GORGEOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope I can keep it that way Jac' :)
DeleteLove the hibiscus, I've considered getting one myself:) What a bummer about your hydrangea...love those too!
ReplyDeleteIt was on sale over the Labor Day weekend at Whitings...not sure if the sale is still on. They had several differnt colors, They are so pretty, I think you need one Jen :)
DeleteVery pretty. My red one died over the winter.
ReplyDeletelove the red color!!!
ReplyDeleteI really struggled with the color Cheri, finally went with that Red, it was unique and so pretty against our white house
DeleteVery gorgeous hibiscus! After last year's drought, I dug up my hydrangea and wintered it in my basement. This summer, I put it outside in the ground and it grew AND bloomed!! We'll see about next year. Audrey said hers has been outdoors these winters but I am tempted to dig it up for this winter, too. Haven't decided! Hugs.....
ReplyDeleteI hope mine survives with a little TLC. :)
