Fran's Hibiscus

Fran writes: Giant (one foot across),hibiscus bloom on Connecticut Avenue near Calvert Woodley liquor store. So striking, several passersby stopped dead in their tracks to admire them. At first, didn't think they were real.

Pat says: I've never seen anything like this -- great thing about digital cameras/phone cameras -- so many lovely little details can be shared and seen and not just described.
