first flower on seedling

9 years ago

finally got the first flower on my second seedling. As I fully suspected it is a small yellow flower. Came out without stigma pads. the weather has been rough on my hibiscus lately. I suspect that the parent plant is butterfly and that it is a self cross.

You make me wish I had more yellows in my group! Love how it looks growing next to that white fence, so pretty.

So between the two seedlings, they are both very small flowers, the only difference I can see right now is the color depth on each plant. One is that really nice dark yellow. The other is a lighter yellow.
