The hibiscus flower is the national flower

of South Korea, Malaysia and Haiti.  In the 

Philippines the hibiscus is used by children 

as part of a bubble making pastime.  The hibiscus

is traditionally worn by Tahitian and Hawaiian girls.

If the flower is worn behind the left ear, the woman

is marred or in a relationship.  If the flower is worn

on the right, she is single or openly available.  It is 

also the state flower of Hawaii.  The first time I saw

a hibiscus, it was growing on tree in Hawaii and they

were so beautiful.  Now, I have the same flower

growing in my backyard.   I hope you enjoy!
