The Hibiscus


The Hibiscus is the national flower of Malaysia and I often admire its beauty with pride. Some 15 to 20 years ago, only one specie was seen most of the time and that was the one with big red petals and the stigma protruding out of the flower with is orange-coloured pollen. The flower has seen tremendous transformation since.

We now have hibiscus of many different hues, red, pink, white, yellow, light purple, "golden", etc. The petals could be normal, serrated, warped, tiny, large or even double-layered. Horticultural engineering has certainly taken this flower a long way and made it more exciting, beautiful and exotic.
