Hi all,

I am writing a novel and would like some help with identifying that gorgeous red flower that seems to grow all over the islands there.

Any info would be appreciated.

Which red flower Frank?
Hibiscus?.....Bougainvilla?
Got more details?

Well heck all looked like the same one on CC and don't know the name of it/kind it is.

Then on AC/SP saw more than one kind and didn't know the names of them either LOL

have a pic but can't get it to stick on this board,just slides right off.
heh heh

Frank.....I have a photo album of San Pedro that includes several pictures of plants and flowers.

This wind blew the flower right as I took it...but you can still the flower pretty well.

This is a red hibiscus.

Marty,
That's my favorite flower. I just planted three of them in my yard. Hot pink. Just lovely and they bloom all the time.....

They are great. I have some in my yard too and they are low maintenance.

Encourage your friends and neigbors to pick the blooms. They only last a day but the more you pick, the more you'll get.

You can feed them to your pet iguana. He will love you. For iguanas, they are like catnip to a cat.
