Every day that a hibiscus flower blooms in my yard I smile! We had a big red one bloom for us on Christmas day, as well as today. Each time I want to take my camera out and try new ways to capture its beauty!

I purchased one red plant and one pink for 50 cents each at the local garden store at the entrance to Coronado. I couldn’t believe they were so inexpensive here! I don’t exactly have a green thumb, so I’m counting my blessings even more every time I get a bloom. Love, love, love their beauty and strength. Even better is the fact that the hummingbirds swung by to check this one out as I sat about 2 feet from it!
