Thors 1st taste of hibiscus

[jpmcclure]

He absolutely loves it!! Question, I have a white hibiscus tree out front that gets lots of aphids. I spray it with soapy water. If I were to do it with this plant, would it hurt him to eat the flowers if I washed it first?

It shouldn't hurt him. Just be sure to wash the soap off.

Cute! I am hoping my moms hibiscus tree won't wilt until I get my baby!

Oh thank God Blake..he's doing great!! He's passing the rocks, grazing like crazy, wakes up every morning around 6:30, basks, eats his spring mix (spinach removed), basks some more, soaks at 10:30, outside at 11, hyperactive till about noon ish walking his perimeter & grazing, sleeps butted up to the fence in one location. When I pop out in the afternoon and put on sprinklers, he comes out to get wet & graze some more, more sleep then in at 7pm for shower and indoor enclosure. Got him a monsoon and CHE also. He's a completely different lil guy. He's still a lil shy with me but I think it's cuz all the vet visits. But he loves me at shower time. Popping his head out & letting me clean his dirty face. I'm so happy and relieved. Thanks for asking. How's your lil one?

Correction..he wouldn't let me clean his face tonight.

Depending on where you live I guess. But mine blooms thru the fall. I'm in northern California. Modesto to be exact.
