Caleb Hibiscus (c) 2010 Patty Hankins
I’ve just added a new photo – Caleb Hibiscus – to my BeautifulFlowerPictures.com website. I’ve always loved the bright colors and shape of hibiscus flowers. When I saw the bright orange Caleb Hibiscus – I knew I had to photograph it – and if I could get the colors to print accurately – that it would be wonderful on canvas. The combination of the red center – with the pink around it – leading out to the bright orange on the petals was an incredible splash of color against the green leaves.
This photograph is available as a 12 X 18″ and 20X30″ gallery-wrapped canvases. You can order Caleb Hibiscus from my website and I will have it available at shows this year.

In the spring it is one of the most beautiful spots in the Washington DC area. I photographed my Azaleas in the Woods photograph at the same garden last year.

I’ve just added a new photo – Catesby’s Trillium II – to my BeautifulFlowerPictures.com website. Catesby’s Trillium (Trillium catesbaei) is a wildflower I photographed in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park last spring. I found this particular flower as I was hiking on School House Gap Trail. The blossoms on the Catesby’s Trillium usually nods below the leaves. As the Catesby’s Trillium matures, the blossom turns pink. I photographed a pink Catesby’s Trillium last spring along GoForth Creek in Tennessee. Vasey’s Trillium, another nodding trillium found in the Smoky Mountains, has red petals.
