Roselles creamy flower!!

So Roselles finally let out their lovely creamy flowers. Only two flowers for now. They look very wet, because of morning drizzle... I took these photograph early in the morning around 7.30 am.
The flowers remain for some 12 hours. Before sunset, they folded up and dropped. Such a short stay ........








Eight of them.

    I really love that deep red center contrast with the white petals.

    Cant beat what nature has in store for us... creamy flower with deep red in the middle. Alas, what a short stay, within a day the drop....

    Soon We will pick the little fruits and prepare ROSELLES DRINK!!... I am now imagining the color of the juice and drink. haha...
