Beautiful Hibiscus for Wordless Wednesday

Nothing better than a beautiful hibiscus for Wordless Wednesday. Most of my steady followers know about our little neighbor lady who moved into assisted living about a few months ago. Ruthie has been a part of Lia’s life since she was born and both were sad when moving day came along.

Shortly before Ruthie moved she gave us a small hibiscus plant that had been buried between other flowers and wasn’t blooming. Hubby transplanted one in our front yard and look at it now! When Lia goes out to check the beautiful blooms, she also looks over at Ruthie’s house as if to say, “We’re taking good care of your beautiful hibiscus.”

I hope you enjoyed our beautiful hibiscus for Wordless Wednesday! We are patiently waiting for Ruthie’s assisted living complex to allow visitors again so we can visit with Ruthie and Lia can take her some delicious cookies to her!

      We miss not seeing her Glenda. The home is still off limits to visitors, hopefully that will change soon because Lia misses seeing Ruthie.

    It’s funny that I was gonna compare hibiscus very similar to another beautiful flower that we had at home when I was a kid. The name of the flower was gumamela, and when I googled it….guess what…they are the same! The color of ours was red. We used to crush some flowers and its leaves and make cool bubbles out of its juices…so fun! You guys should try it. BTW, Lia’s looking good on these pictures 🙂

    • Martha says:

      WOW, I learned something Jojo, never know the other name of them. I’ll have to try making bubbles, Lia would love that! I’ve also been told if you take the dried petals, they make delicious tea. That just might be another blog with the bubbles and tea!

      I think this hibiscus had Ruthie’s love in it also Vidya. Lia knows it came from her yard and we’re waiting for the day that visiting opens up in nursing homes so we can go visit Ruthie!
