Thanks for answering, Gilma. I have red hibiscus hybrid. He is having problems in the pattern of flowers. They are born with different shapes on the same plant. Seems anomaly. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/214...

I am sure they are both cultivars... I'll change my ID to Hibiscus cultivar instead. Thanks! :)

Those are so lovely, AgnesAdiqueTalavera. They do look a bit different than mine but do you think they share the same scientific name?!

Sckel, the man that sold it to me said he really did not want to sell those Hibiscus because they were an experiment!? He sold me two anyway, one does what you see in the pictures the other does it also but closer to the other flower so it looks as a many petal flower?!

Pretty flowers Gilma. I have the salmon-coloured double-flowering variety in our garden - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/157... :)
