yes, lovely striped flower ,
these are thailand made hybrids
hundreds of them show up on google images

I bought some  a few years ago at a nursery near KOl Bot G, , several got
stolen (expensive in local markets)

one was a bright pink originally for a couple of years
then almost nothing
this year  i neglected it for about six months, busy with family and
friends ' health death etc
and lo and hold 20 or so new very bright red... redder than red hibiscus
flowers...  all of a sudden now...
go figure    even deepened its color..

just started watering once a week


another was light pink,
 this year one very bright pure white flower came up , and some buds are
also  beginning to develop will uncurl  in a day or two..

my sister who  has grown them by the hundreds from store bought, from
cuttings, from seeds .. etc
says neglect is the key to successful flowering...

never would have believed it if it did not happen to my own plants
