Purple Hibiscus

I shall feel that I have worked with God."

    I have several in my yard, some I've tried to kill off and it is near impossible. Did you know that they propagate easier than any shrub I've known? Cut the ends, put in a big vase of water and you'll have roots shooting off the bark in about a week's time. Sorry for the long ramble :) I love the color on that one!

    I love how the background gets out of focus and the foreground is crystal clear.

    I have a white one that is just beginning to bloom. Have never seen a purple. It is absolutely beautiful.
    Thanks to BusyWorkingMama, I was wondering if I could propagate it. Now I know:) The thing one learns blogging:)
