The lighting was just right today when I took this shot of one of the Cherie Hibiscus blossoms. This flower was especially pretty and had no visible flaws or blemishes.
Found on the Internet from an old Sunset Magazine article:
A warm tropical paradise with gentle ocean breezes is what hibiscus (H. rosasinensis) brings to mind. The state flower of Hawaii, this evergreen hibiscus has long been a symbol of the beauty and lushness of the tropics. If you live in a mild-winter area of the West, you can bring a bit of paradise to your garden by planting hibiscus.
