I've been posting mostly about chocolates this October. Here's a little change of topic. I don't usually post about flowers but the gumamelas or hibiscus growing at the garden at the front of our office building is worth writing about. The flowers are from a senior faculty member, Dr. Mark Zarco, who is an avid collector of hibiscus. He said he wanted to show that they can be planted and nurtured here and specifically on campus. The results are the following that are growing at the island in front of our main steps and driveway.

I have yet to get all the names of these varieties of gumamelas. I think our friend Mark started posting these on FB so I will try to update this post from time to time to include their names.
