Hibiscus Garden in Batu Pahat

I bet a lot of you don’t know where this is. If you don’t come back often, its okay to be clueless. Still no idea? How about a bigger picture showing somemore background.

Give up? This is actually a place for people to do light exercise. It also serves as a hibiscus garden for people to know about the varieties of the flower. It is located between the Stadium and Parit Dobi (the infamous big drain).

I believe these are hibiscus too, but grown in clusters. I am no botanist, so if I have mis-identified the flower, feel free to leave your comments and I will make the adjustment.

Edit: This is Kock’s Bauhinia. Scientific name is Bauhinia kockiana. It is also a creeper and originate from Peninsular Malaysia. Thanks to Lulu for the tip.

This would be the official national flower, what breed I have no idea. This is the side view of it.

This is the front view.

Another variety with larger and rounder petals.

The scattered petals hibiscus.

The pink variant.

Last of the lot, this one has an inner dark colour compared to the rest found in the park.

And that concludes my introduction to the hibiscus, our national flower.
