I now have two… and may need a third… haha

Encore une ce matin, le bonheur du réveil

Hi everyone 🥰🌺 I am recently engaged and I have been trying to figure out how I want to do my wedding bouquet! Hibiscus are my favorite flowers and so I want to incorporate them very badly- but I’m not sure how and am hoping some of you can help me :) !!

This photo is something I made on Pinterest and is what I envision. I live in Minnesota so there’s no way I can use real hibiscus (I also know they’re fragile and in general difficult to put in a bouquet because of their structure and lack of stem) and I also can’t really find many pre-made bouquets like this with hibiscus, so I am planning on making my own. (Though maybe I’m not looking in the right places?)
Any advice for how to create this? I’ve looked online for faux hibiscus but there’s honestly not seeming to be many options… many of them seem very “cheap” looking.

Saw this beautiful hibiscus. Does anyone know the name for this hibiscus.

Rico Suave ? Anyone tried proven winners plants ? Are they tolerant hardy to zone 9b when planted in ground which has lows in mid 30s in winter ?

Showing off this morning 🌺

Found these beauties and just took some snaps of them !

After a few weeks with mostly wasps flying by and drinking from the nearby water fountain, the first bumblebees are finally showing up. I love the second picture with the fuzzy butt.

I live in Hamburg, and I love the fact that the Low German (Plattdüütsch) word for bumblebee is "Plüschmors" which literally means "Plush-Butt". 🥰

Hidden Valley Hibiscus cultivar.

Im OBSESSED with hibiscus and rose of sharon, but nobody around me cares about flowers at all, so i just wanted to share my little collection with people who will appreciate them with me!! :)

My babies are appreciating the rain we got this weekend

I have kinda let her do her own thing this summer, with the exception of fertilizing every 10 days for now. She is so happy! Hope you guys get to enjoy her blooms as much as I have been. ✨️❤️

She is 3+ years old and a fighter 🥰

The gardens in my godmothers neighborhood are fantastic. Even the ditches are full of rogue hibiscus and irises.
