Thank you ! :)
It’s a bit of a strange one that always looks half-dead – I don’t think it’s in the right spot in the yard.

Lori Peters
It is a beautiful flower, James. Flowers are tricky. They peak in beauty and then start to decay until the next year. Great timing. xo
reflector replied
Thanks Lori, they can go off very quickly. This one is on the plant, but I took one inside a few weeks ago, shot and added effects and called it ” The Process Of Decay ”. Thanks for the fave ! :)

Luscious interior, beautiful choice of flower with these gracious swirls.

Thanks Shallay, I’m glad you like it. I don’t really know what it’s called, but I think it’s a variety of Hibiscus.
