Hawaii Belle Hibiscus
Location: Kohala Coast, Big Island, Hawaii
This hibiscus variety is called Hawaii Belle. It grew slowly for about a year after we planted it in our garden, but now that it is established, it produces a steady supply of ruffled red blossoms with ivory accents.

This is a gorgeous image of the Hibiscus!
Great Ruby Tuesday post.
Very pretty.
Beautiful red hibicus species you've captured. Happy Ruby Tuesday!!!
It almost looks like ruffled, crepe paper! Absolutely delightful!
beautiful!!!
That's a stunning Hibiscus! I've often thought of planting Hibiscus, but I thought I'd be kind to the poor little potted plant and leave it for someone else to bring home. I love to look at them, but I sure don't have a green thumb!
Lovely photo. Love how the flower is sharp, the background blurred, but one leaf is crisp. Happy Ruby Tuesday!
Oh what a beautiful hibiscus. I love the ruffles and the white streaking...
This bloom looks as if it is bungee jumping out of the plant. Looks to be in motion even if sitting still...
Beautiful! I really think that sums it up.
Wow, what a stunning picture!!
Beautiful fresh leaves, makes me want to touch it!
Beautiful color for a rainy day..
Beautiful shot of the hibiscus and perfect for Ruby Tuesday!

Hi Bobbie, your hibiscus is sooooo pretty. We grow them here too.
Thank you for peeking in on my baby quilts. This is a nice project for us.

Oh yes, I was expecting a sea creature but I suppose there aren't too many red amongst the blue. :-)

This is gorgeous. I lived surrounded by Hibiscus daily and this is the first one I have seen like this.
Thanks for stopping by my lightning shots. I had always wanted to try, so we played with shutter speed and the timer and finally figured it out.
Beautiful shot of a beautiful flower! I love the ruffly edges.
