I went for a morning walk at my neighborhood park, Kingfisher Park. It was a small park but the impact was big.

The flowers were small but they gave big impact and made me so cheerful.

The hibiscus flower is our Malaysian national flower. The normal one is larger than the one I posted. This is a dwarf hibiscus species.

"Hibiscus is in the Malvaceae family of tropical plants and are known worldwide as the poster plant for tropical islands.

A dwarf hibiscus is a variety of hibiscus plant that has been cultivated to be used as an indoor flowering plant and also does well planted outdoors as a lower ground cover variety of hibiscus. It grows between 2 to 3 feet instead of 6 to 8 feet (or more) as with traditional hibiscus."
