Famous Beauty Is Hibiscus

1t has been written of one of
Florida's wild flowers that it 'is
probably the most glorious of all
the plants Indigenous to the United
States" This superlative praise
was given to a tall hibiscus that
opens crimson flowers five to eight
inches across, says Nature Maya
zine. Like several other species of
wild hibiscus, this crimson-fowered
one blooms in the borders of
swamps in summer, at time when
low grounds in many places are gay
with the southern red lily, whose
upright solitary flowers, of red and
yellow spotted with purple, tops a
stem set with many narrow erect
leaves.

go first"
