Gorgeous Fred! The droplets are extra special!

Fred is a beauty for sure. Great colors and waterdrops.

Beautiful capture and really nice with all of the rain drops on it, John!

I wonder how people come up with names for flowers. It just doesn't look like a Fred. Should be a girls name. Am so glad you are having spring now., must be very lovely where you are. Very pretty color and love the raindrops.

Fred is absolutely beautiful (although I admit I'd be more likely to call "her" Frederica)! Love the water drops!

11/14/2012 1:04:27 PM

Stunning. Love the raindrops and the colours.

11/14/2012 1:11:05 PM

What a beauty, John!
My native hibiscus looks completely different :-)

Fred sure is a pretty little thing. It's nice to see a man secure enough in his masculinity to wear pink.

11/14/2012 8:15:04 PM

Fred has done you proud John. This is a beauty of a bloom.
