Another flower for good vibes in the morning. This is a flower of hibiscus which we call gumamela.
What so different with this flower is the size which is just 1.5 inch in wide, Had a velvet red color and many petals. Quite small compare to other flowers of this variety, but the girdle at the sides of the flower make this beautiful.

@ilocosboy that scientific name is already embedded in the gray matter of my brain, way back second year high school, year 1973.

Gumamela reminds me of my childhood years. We used to have it in our garden.
