“Every gardener, at some point in time, falls prey to the hibiscus craze and I am no exception,” says Ayeshia Fernandes who lives in HRBR layout. “My mum is an enthusiastic gardener and has a wide collection of this plant. A few woody cuttings from her has been the beginning of my hibiscus journey. I currently grow nine varieties of this flower, including the tropical hibiscus double orange, Chinese hibiscus, white hibiscus or rose mallow, and hibiscus rosa sinesis.”
In Bengaluru, one can source a range of hibiscus plants from most nurseries that dot the city, to say nothing of the flower vendors pushing their carts through residential areas.
