I've lost count when exactly mom plant this type of hibiscus in our garden. There are so many species under the hibiscus's family, and I realized that how little I know about the name of hibiscus or even how many types i've seen.
As far as I know, mom has owned 5-6 type of hibiscus along the way she collected from road side. We're proud of her gardening skill. I can't imagine if we live without this garden... many things we could have miss-out.
1. Playing with the big snails/ dragon fly/ butterfly/ ladybug...etc
2. Non-stop supply of fresh chili paddy
3. Mango
4. Nangka fruit
5. Pandan leaf
6. Watching the little-fighting fish under the lotus leaf
7. Hiding something under the ground.. :P
Many years ago, it was a big piece of land that everyone here plant little small tree or flower. As time goes by, new neighbor clear up the space and transform it to be a parking area except the land right in front of my house. I really wish our earth could have more greener as we grow older. Make the earth for human not our cars..
Well, yet to find out the name of these flowers. * Welcome any finding or suggestion on what is the real name for this hibiscus!
Stay tuned till I've found the name for it.

Hi everyone,
I have found the scientific name for this hibiscus. It is called Hibiscus schizopetalus also known as Japanese Lanterns Malvaceae. Well, it is such a long strange name though... :P
Hope everyone is alright out there!
P/S: It is very hot right now in California.
Yours sincerely,
Big Tree
