Flowers of Winter: The Hibiscus Blooms for Aloyse

My plants are doing very well without me, it seems. After the fire, I farmed out the biggest ones to my neighbor Aloyse who has a lovely bay window on one side of her house, and a glassed-in porch on the other side.

The hibiscus obviously likes the exposure a lot because she says she came back to town after a short stay in the country to find the plant in bloom. Since it rarely has bloomed for me, I think she deserves the Award of the Green Thumb as well as many thanks for taking in some orphan plants!

Ooh, you're lucky to have winter plant-sitters. I've lost so many of them to lack of light in the cold months.
