This is one of our sultry hibiscus blooms opening fully to us on Easter Sunday morning. She was found closed and dead on the floor yesterday, while one of her sister blooms was starting to open above her.

It’s a short life that these beautiful blooms lead, but not a shy one. They seem to strike salacious poses to get attention just before they leave the world. It’s no wonder that some Tahitian women wear (or wore) them in a certain way to signal that they’re looking for a relationship. (Brooklin, Maine) Click on image to enlarge it.
