Out of Focus

Day #80

Going to the green houses/nursery around town can be so tempting for me. Filling my pots, flower beds, gardens with plants and blooms alike. 
Today, I was just "looking" and decided that this Quad-colored Hibiscus Bush needed to come home with me. My deck needed beauty and color!
The Hibiscus is a genus of the flowering plants in the mallow family. There are several hundred species that are native to warm temperate climate, subtropical and tropical. So that means this baby is coming inside for the fall and winter months. 
 

Out of Focus

 
I did a bit more reading, and I discovered that you can use the hibiscus flowers to make tea which is tart in flavor and filled with Vitamin C!  So, my purchase is not only pretty but healthy too! 
I took several pictures, and I like this one because parts are in focus and parts are out of focus... and I think that it still shows off how beautiful the Hibiscus plant is. 

Thank you for taking a look!

See you tomorrow!
