Last of the Hibiscus and one Coleus

I probably only have one more blooming cycle on the Hibiscus plant this year. I'll trim it a little and put it in the basement by the sliding glass door in the next couple weeks.

Don't you hate to see them go, Tom? 😢 Beautiful shots with glorious color, and your hibiscus will most likely reward you with even more blooms next season!

If you recall, they were a long time getting those first blooms out - a good 2 months of waiting. I take it in the house during winter and place it next to a sliding glass door. It was trimmed down a bit and seemed to do fine in the basement. I'm going to trim it less than I did last year and we'll see what happens next spring.
Yes, I do hate to see them go. Such a pretty bloom. Thanks, Donna for your nice comments.
Always good to hear from you.
