Mama Lola's Perennial Hibiscus. Many years ago when I was visiting my Grandmother wewalked outside and she gathered some seeds for me from her Perennial Hibiscus. She put them
in a ziplock bag and when I got in the van for some reason I just put them under my seat. Then
as I usually do I forgot about them. Months after she passed away ): I was cleaning out my van
and found the long lost seeds. I immediately took them out to my flower bed and planted
them. It was early Spring at that time. They came up and flowered that summer. I have had
this plant ever since. I was living in Ruston, Louisiana at the time. When we moved we moved
the hibiscus to Magnolia on Springwood, then to Sassafrass. It will go back to Louisiana when I
go. When my Perennial Hibiscus comes up each Spring and starts to bloom I feel Mama Lola's
presence so near. It is a sign to me that she is fine....She is in Heaven looking down on me and telling me to stop and smell the "Perennial Hibiscus." I love you Mama Lola. I miss you so much. I just wish you could have met Chloe',Grayson, Joleigh, Katie, Stone, and Kaiden. You would have loved them so much! But I know you will meet them someday! Hugs and Kisses. I love you!
