this is a lovely hibiscus.. i haven't seen that color-type in the Philippines..

Well I researched some seed companies that specialize in hibiscus hybrids and found some similar but not pink veined...or pink veined but not yellow. So I think that you have a beautiful original flower, haha. Perhaps it hybridized itself somehow? It sure is pretty.

Short stigma hibiscus flower plants believed originated from Hawaii..Yellow, Orange, Pink are very common..!!

No that's the only photo and in the for months that I was there this was the only bloom. It's a vary arid climate and I think we were pretty lucky to see the one bloom

It is most likely a hibiscus hybrid. I did a search and didn't find an exact match, but Google search for 'yellow hibiscus with pink veins' lists may pages of links. Some are closer than others. Do you have any more pictures? Are all the flowers veins pink? Were any white veined?
