Hibiscus looks very healthy and colourful Kath - you have similar decking, vertical rails and outside pots as I have !

Yes Richard and maybe the rain too :) at end of my deck have an Arch with clematis at either side.

Hello Bernieh I am so pleased with her ,I love the colour and while it was growing put it outdoors in the rain and when buds started to come took her indoors.

Well it seems to like it. It's always a bit strange to me - seeing plants like hibiscus in pots indoors! I'm so used to them being outdoors in garden beds or in the middle of lawns.

I really dont think it would survive Scottish winters outdoors Bernieh a lovley morning so far we have got blue sky for a change of grey:)

Maybe get washing dry for a change outdoors.

Glad to hear it - we actually complain about the months and months of blue skies here because there's just no rain at all. Never happy!

Same as us as we are not used to a lot of heat take it bad although like it we are no tused to it .

But its been raining every day for weeks now and my water but is overflowing as cant use it as nothing need watered.

Wish could send some rain in a bottle ot you :)

Mind you when we visited Austrailia in 2000 I loved it.

Would love some rain - this is our driest time of year and we've still got another 3 or 4 months to go before there's even a hint of rain here.

Bonny plant indeed, Kath ...and a very pretty colour too...well rescued!
Amazing what you can get if you really look hard enough...and give them plenty TLC ..and rainwater too obviously!!
