Native hibiscus: Alyogyne

12 years ago

The name shown in the subject of this post is the only ID on the label that came with this plant. Unlike my other native hibiscus, the leaves on this one are soft/furry and do not have any prickles. The flowers last only a day and are unscented, but the plant--flowers and leaves--are pretty.

Another pretty one and a great colour too, certainly looks more like a watermelon colour. What a shame the flowers don't last very long do they have a long flowering season like the other Hibiscus
