Sunshiners

The luxurious flowers of the hibiscus are always surprising. The flowers bloom only for a day or two, but new buds keep springing open. This is why the hibiscus is a very lively plant that looks different every day.

Also known as the China rose, this plant originates from tropical Asia where the plant can grow up to four meters high! They say that the sap of the hibiscus flower is used to color eyebrows and shoes, which is why the plant is also called "shoe flower". In Hawaii, the flowers have another purpose, as women put them in their hair to seduce men. They know it works!
