Hibiscus Garden

While on the Atherton Tableland, Peter had opportunities to walk through a friend's garden. This person, Kay, hopes that one day her garden will function as a wedding venue. The only trouble will be where to park the cars. Alongside many other exotic looking flowers there was a large variety of Hibiscus flowering shrubs. These were in so many delightful colours and shapes. Her collection was definitely worth blogging about.

It seems that the Ulysses butterfly is attracted to the nectar of these flowers. One of them was fluttering about visiting each Hibiscus for a top-up. Ants also found their way onto the flowers for the same reason. You may find an ant doing that in the Hibiscus combination picture above if you are up for a challenge.
