planting the new Hibiscus. Years ago Marianne spotted some of these at a Wal-Mart and when I went back to get them the only ones left were a white flower with red center. We planted eight along the fence and eventually four died. This year Marianne spotted them again at a local nursery and did not let them out of her sight. Wednesday I planted the two shown above. The shot below was taken Wednesday night after the rain that interrupted my digging. (The other two were planted Thursday.)
I joined the Header Challenge team in November. We post a new header each week on a suggested theme. Imac is the founder and head of the team. The members vote for best header and the winner gets the gold. The links above will take you to the other participants.
