This is the whole flower that you asked that I post. The other one is not a crop of this one, it was taken much closer. Not that great but it is the best one I have.

JJ - thanks a lot. Absolutely beautiful. Even the texture of the petals is so very well caught. Well done!

It can't be, even for fun. Hibiscus size varies depending on the soil and the nourishment the plant gets, but the maximum the flower can get to, I think, is just about six inches across.
