Hibiscus grows and blossoms all year long. During rainy season a hibiscus may grow up to 2 or more meters in a single season. During dry season growth stops almost completely but a hibiscus keeps blossoming. Each blossom last one day only - each day new fresh blossoms during rainy season and dry season. A hibiscus blossom is a living jewel for girls often worn in hair as a decoration - the beauty of a hibiscus blossom lasts even without water a full day.
