About two months ago I was out for the day at a Stitchers Plus meeting & when I came home I found my double pink hibiscus had been mutilated. It was nothing much more than a stump! All the beautiful leafy branches had gone & I was left with just a few twigs sticking out from the central trunk. Last week I noticed what I thought were new leaves comming, & yesterday I found this, along with a few other green tips, sticking out from those twigs. This past winter has been particulay cold, so I will blame the weather for my bush taking so long to recover. Now the weather has warmed up a little, maybe I will see more new leaves soon.
