This Rose of Sharon..

I have no shame, I asked my nextdoor neighbor for some pollen from his rose of sharon to cross pollinate with my red rose mallows and orange hibiscus ..ha. I'll give him a few keikis if I get some seeds later.🤣🌺😅

I found two more Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) pavementplants in a back alley in the Graduate Hospital Area today. Only one of them was flowering & the flowers were closing up for the day, so I will have to check back on it in the morning soon.

Rose of Sharon off 9th St. below the Italian Market, in Passyunk Square, shot in 2017. This was the second flowering specimen of the species I ever found grown out of a pavement crack.

Sorry, but one last #bee pic. I don't normally get a chance to snap one so close without it flying off. lol

A close-up of the pollen-drunk bee.

I was having some difficulty getting my camera to focus on the bee but I still like the pics I got from it. Going macro on a Samsung isn't always easy.

This bee must've found the good good pollen on this hibiscus flower bc he didn't care one bit that I was obnoxiously taking photos of it.

Just one flower on the Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) this morning.

Rose of Sharon flowers last less than a day and it pushes out new ones every day so I'm going to visit this one as many mornings as I can until the season is over or it gets cut down.

Some blooms on my #RoseofSharon tree. So many blooms this year. I think having cut down some invasive small trees along the fence to give more sunlight and air circulation helped.
