Description
Exotic Dreams. Petals of Hibiscus by Jenny Rainbow.
The hibiscus flower, while native to Asia and the Pacific Islands, is grown all over the world and comes in over 200 species. Hibiscus bloom in hues of red, pink, orange, yellow and white, each variety having its own distinct flower. Like its genetic variety, the hibiscus also has various meanings specific to Europe, Hawaii, Japan, China, South Korea, Malaysia, Egypt, India and other areas.
Dating to the Victorian era, when flowers adorned clothing, stationery, wallpaper, hats, china and jewelry, the hibiscus means delicate beauty, relating to the sunny and delicate conditions under which it will bloom and to the fragility and beauty of its flower. Today, "delicate beauty" is the common meaning of the hibiscus when used in flower arrangements or given as a gift. In North America it is commonly known as the rose of Sharon and symbolizes the perfect bride: fruitful, of beauty and one with God.
