Re: Another Brug and couple of tropical hibiscus
Most "serious" brug people don't grow shredded white (I am not one of them, fortunately I am not too serious about anything, LOL... I have 3 and have been growing them for several years). The shredding is believed to be a virus-caused mutation and some people (not me) are very wary of that.
Sometimes "normal" brugs will "shred" if there is a radical weather event (like an intense heat wave, or conversely, an unexpected radical dip in temps) while flower buds are setting. I have had shredded flowers on Jamaican Yellow, Butterfly, and Ecuador Pink before.
Yours looks great! Good growing there!
