Yesterday I said that it was the last photo of my welcome home hibiscus that I would post, but at the request of forgottenman, I am publishing two more stages of its life. This morning I went outside to find the flower fallen to the terrace floor, but when I opened its clasped fist, I found that forgottenman was right and there was still more beauty to display, so here is a medium shot of a hibiscus at rest and tomorrow will be the last two closeup shots. R.I.P. hibiscus beauty.
Click on first photo to enlarge both.

Thanks for sharing the life of something so beautiful! It’s frozen and cold here, so all the flowering plants? Dormant. It’s refreshing to see some ‘spring’ (even if it is deceased). R.I.P beautiful flower.

Hi Melanie. We don’t have many seasons except for rainy season. Flowers bloom year round. Poor me.

It was wonderful following the life of this flower. All things in life, we live we die. In between, we shine and do our best.

Absolutely. Nowhere more evident than with flowers or on the seashore.
