On this picture, it is a flower of Hibiscus Schizopetalus, better known as African Hibiscus. When we saw this flower on 20th July 2008 in the North Carolina Zoo, we were so amazed of its very distinctive divided petals. It was simply eye catching. Hibiscus Schizopetalus is a species of Hibiscus native to eastern Africa in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique. It is a shrub which can grow to 3 meters tall. However, the flower was so attractive and we did not even pay attention to the other part of the plant. It is really shame on us.
