Orange Hibiscus - Tropical Flower Photography

Sale price$45.00
Material:
Size:

A single orange hibiscus opens to fill the frame, its ruffled petals fading toward a deeper throat with a long staminal column thrust well clear of the bloom. Tropical hibiscus, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, carries that distinctive central column — stamens and stigma fused into one structure that holds the pollen out where birds and insects will brush it. Each flower is famously short-lived: most open at dawn and are spent by nightfall, the plant replacing them daily through the warm season. The close-up framing fills the picture edge to edge with petal, leaving no background to compete. The photograph captures a single day's bloom at its fullest.
