Hi, my dear HiveGardners!
What flowers are the last to bloom in your garden?
It's grassy hibiscuses in my garden. If they have blossomed, it's a sure sign that summer is coming to an end. The red hibiscus you see in the photo below has been growing in my garden for about ten years. I think I'll need to transfer it to another place this year. If earlier it grew into a two-meter plant, covered with huge bright flowers, this year it looks very modest so far. Maybe it needs more sun. Over the years, raspberries have grown around him and a huge spruce has grown. Therefore, the situation has changed.
The flower you see in the photo above is one of the four new varieties of grassy hibiscus that I bought this year. Honestly, I didn't think I would get a bloom in the first year and it was a huge surprise and joy for me. I may have to transplant my new hibiscus in the fall, too, because now I see that I have not chosen places for them very well. Fortunately, these flowers are quite hardy and can be transplanted easily.
