Re: Another Brug and couple of tropical hibiscus
I may have taken a photo of one of the Jamaican Yellows last season, I'll have to look for it. I didn't bother with the others. The first time it happened, I was freaked out because I thought that the plants had somehow "reverted" to being "shredded" from being in close proximity to my Shredded Whites. At first it was only on one plant, but, as all of my brugs tend to bloom in flushes at the same time almost every time, it soon became apparent that it was on ALL the plants. Weird. So I took a photo to show to the "serious" brug people, and was schooled that Jamaican Yellow is one of th ones that most often exhibits this "splitting" behaviour on its flowers, but others can do it too.
It doesn't look like the classic shredding of Shredded White, where the petals kind of clearly develop serapately. It looks more like someone took scissors and cut the flowers like paper dolls.
