Field Notes

Description:

The bright colours of the Hibiscus always seem so striking and with the flowers themselves being fairly large are hard to miss! They are also known in some parts of the world as a Rose Mallow due to them belonging to the family Malvaceae..

Habitat:

These ones were growing in the gardens of the Blue waters Inn, Tobago. but they grow throughout all warm/temperate, tropical and sub tropical areas of the world.
