Okay, let's continue where we left off!

'Tahitian Sentinel Sunset' Can't find this as a registered cultivar. Maybe a new one?

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/006360

Here's another 'Seminole Pink'



Hibiscus coccineus



'All A Glitter' Couldn't find this cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/ecea95

'Blue Jean Baby' Another first!



'Baja Breeze' Another first!



Another 'Stolen Kiss'



'Bluer Than Blue' Another first!



'Light My Fire' This one has a lot more fire than the other one.



'Purple Magic' This one is a lot nicer than the other one at the show.



'Bright Eyes' Here's another one you can see is much better than the other one in the show.



'Mystic Mist' Still can't find this cultivar but it seems popular down here.

'Zydeco' Another first! This is pretty!



Another 'Cosmic Dancer'



'Swamp Fire' Had to request this one be added to the DB.



'PM Hidden Mystery' Another one I need added to the DB. FYI, at this point in the show I was in the section where the vendors were exhibiting. I guess they separate them out for obvious reasons.



'Mayan Princess' Still can't find this cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/48da62

'Seven Seas' Another one that needs added to the DB. It's nice the IHS has a handy list of cultivars.



'Howard's Stage' Yet another to add to the DB. I wonder if we had a lot of newer cultivars?



This is labeled 'Snow Cherry', but I looked and I think it's actually 'Cherry Snow'. I say that by looking at the IHS genealogy pages. The exhibitor was Exotic Hibiscus and their site lists it as 'Snow Cherry', but I think they're wrong. So just enjoy the pic.

This one was labeled 'H Bunny' which I would think is 'Honey Bunny', but I can't find a picture of it anywhere so I can't compare. Correct labeling is so important!

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/94e8ed

'Wonderful Daughter' Can't find this cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/262d8d

'Smaug' Doesn't seem to be an official cultivar, but I see some places are selling it. FYI, Smaug is the name of the dragon in "The Hobbit".

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/dc5b2a

'Electric Blue' IHS lists this cultivar as "not registered".

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/24a7dd

'Barry's Arabian Nights' Another first!



'Rocket's Red Glare'



'Blueberry' Another first!



'Night Runner'



'Red Cadillac' Another one to be added to the DB.



'Zydeco'



'Radiant'



These Exotic Hibiscus folks have serious spelling problems. Even on their own website! This is Vero's something. The bloom looks like Vero's Saree. But what the tag says is totally different.

Unlisted

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/a18c68

'Love Zone' Can't find this as a registered cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/b910b6

'Windy Days' Another first!



'Cajun Sun' Another first!



'Clair de Luna' This is from Exotic Hibiscus and is not the Moorea cultivar, 'Clair de Lune'.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/bffa39

'King Byron' This was labeled as 'King Bayron' but I confirmed it on the IHS. If you guys ever order from Exotic Hibiscus, please note their spelling is terrible so please confirm what you are buying!



'Miss Rosy' Can't find this cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/6506f3

Okay, we're out of the vendor section and back to regular folks.

'Cajun Rising Moon' Not in the DB, but listed in the IHS so I asked for it to be added.



'Chartreuse Rose' Another first!



'Moonlight Madness' Another first! Not to be confused with 'Barry's Moonlight Madness' which looks totally different. See, I look before I post! I can't always trust these tags.



This one was labeled 'Peach Pink' which isn't a correct name. It doesn't look close enough to any similar named cultivars for me to feel like I can add it.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/5c1a89

'White Kalakaua' This was misspelled White Kalakawa, but I'll forgive them since it's a Hawaiian word.



'Saffron Moon'



'Wally's Pride' Can't find this one.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/105942

'Cele Tinney' Another first! Another misspelling! Sighing!



'Cynthia'



Another 'Saffron Moon'



'Peach Blow' Another first!



'Saffron Sun' As opposed to the moon. Hilarious!



'Mini Ballerina' Another first!



'Triple XXX' Another first!



'Chartreuse Rose'



'Lavender Lady'



'New Idea' Another first!



'Almond Toffee' Can't find this cultivar.

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/915331

'Chiffon Pink' Not in the DB but listed in IHS. Better request an add.



'Pride of Hankins'



'Peach Blow Sport'

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/d33c66

H. schizopetalus



'Sweet Cheeks'



'Pink Pride of Hankins'

Thumb of 2016-05-30/mellielong/061eb0

'Pride of Hankins' This one sure is popular!



Okay, Zuzu just approved my requests so let me go add those pictures. Next up is Best of Show so get excited!
