I have violet hibiscus planted in pots in my balcony. I planted them 6 months ago. During the spring and summer the flowers did keep their colour and shape. Once the monsoons have started and skies remain overcast, the flower now has changed colour. It is pinkish violet at the moment.

The natural rains during the Monsoons are a boon for the plants.
I have seen even the lagging plants growing well during the Monsoons.

The Monsoons arrived in Delhi NCR today.
It has been continuously raining here since today morning 5 AM.
Not usual in Delhi.
I believe it could be causing traffic jam in many areas but I haven't checked.
