It's been grown as hedge of our property since i was a kid but was killed when i was already in college. However, there are still some of them which has become wild when left by owners. We call H.rosa-sinensis as gumamela, and we call this one also as gumamela, even if it's of different genus. I wonder why it only blooms in fall in winter there, when it blooms all year here! I miss this one, this post reminds me to plant it again as a reminder of childhood.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1436300684009668766.post-50559649073217118222010-11-23T06:26:36.582-05:002010-11-23T06:26:36.582-05:00I used to see this hibiscus in my kampung (village...I used to see this hibiscus in my kampung (village) but nowadays cant find them around, almost extinct.
