I just got this pink hibiscus yesterday to feed my tortoise when it's safe, and i woke up this morning to move it outside and it had this awesome flower on it!

It's rewarding you for giving it a home.

oh how beautiful, my grama had some in her yard but my torts destroyed the plant, tried digging a burrow right under it and killed the poor thing =[ but they ate all the flowers off of it, now that im thinking about it, i wonder if they tried to dig a burrow, or knock the plant down to get to the flowers! haha

Is that a hardy hibiscus variety or a tropical variety...reminds me of a tropical variety...you live in New York right--where there is alot of snow...lol...I would make sure of what type you have before you decide to plant outdoors...

oh by the way, beautiful flowering for sure..

I'm not sure on the type. Just that it is a pink hibiscus. I have it in a 5-6 gallon pot so I can easily bring it inside for cool weather.

My Russians love hibiscus and eat the leaves and flowers regularly, especially the flowers. I Make sure there is no fertilizer or chemicals on or in the plants.
