Hibiskus / Hibiscus
This lily I planted two years ago and I thought we had accidentally destroyed it but this year it came back in full glory and is blooming for the first time. I kept an eye on the buds and caught the first one opening early this morning. (This is a timelapse, it did not open this fast.) Birds stuff will be back tomorrow. Stay cool!

Würd ich dir 'ne Blume schenken, immer wenn ich an dich denke, dann hättest du 'n Garten vorm Haus. Ich schwör', du kämst da gar nicht mehr raus.
Garten vorm Haus - CIVO & Maxe
This flower motif appers on the tombstone of Blume, who lived in Speyer or as she probably called it, Schpira. We know from the inscription on the stone that she was the daughter of the scholar Jacob, and she passed away on the 30th of December in 1365. It's a well preserved jewish tombstone that is almost 700 years old!! Wow!
Here the flower ornamentation appears as a symbol reference to the name, since Blume means flower in Yiddish and German. Symbols referring to the name are not uncommon on tombstones, and may also appear in the form of the lion (Löw or Juda), the bird (Tziporah or Feygl) or the deer (Hirsch or Tzvi).
Say hi to my newest oc! Blume, a redraw from the old oc I once had lol.
