❄️ How Turk's Cap can be full of snow in Summer

• &⛄️ Malvaviscus x penduliflorus Variegata - "Summer Snow"- is very rare variegated variety Turk's Cap, or Firecracker Hibiscus.
• &⛄️ Almost ever-blooming, this shrub looks much like a hibiscus (to which it is closely related) which flowers are ready to open. In fact, the flowers never open much, hence the common name of Sleepy Hibiscus.
• &⛄️ It blooms often, and the flowers attract hummingbirds. The 2 inch long tubular flowers appear to be constructed of crimson crepe paper as they nod against the large variegated leaves.
• &⛄️ Some leaves can be completely white! The little tree looks like a decorated Christmas tree!
• &⛄️ Can be kept compact shape and is good for container culture and bonsai.

🍋 🎂 How to make sour taste sweet and what causes the miracle?

• &🍭Miracle Fruit, Synsepalum dulcificum - is one of the strangest tropical fruit that makes sour taste sweet!
• &🍭 The miracle is that if lemon or other sour food is eaten after the miracle fruit, the sour tastes sweet, as if sugar has been added. That kind of magical experience is unforgettable!
• &🍭 A natural chemical in the fruit masks the tongue sour taste buds so that lemons taste like lemonade or lemon pie, or lemon candy! The sweet sensation lasts for half an hour to a few hours.
• &🍭 Miracle fruit berries are valued as a food supplement for chemo-therapy patients to improve the taste of food.
• &🍭 This small, evergreen shrub grows very slowly to a height of 4-6 ft in container, and 6-10 ft in natural habitat. A 10 years old plant might be easily only 4-5 feet tall. It forms an oval to pyramidal shaped bush or small tree.
• &🍭 Miracle fruit is a small compact bush, and can be a rewarding indoor plant. It can be grown in a 1-3 gal pot and produce most of the year. Seed to fruit in 2 to 3 years. Flower to fruit in 30 to 45 days.

🎁 What is the best Gift plant?

Coffee makes an excellent gift plant and is perfect as a houseplant or container-grown fruit tree. It develops into a lush, dark green shrub or small tree, producing fragrant white star-shaped flowers in clusters, similar to gardenias. The entire fruit is edible, starting green, then turning yellow, and finally red as it ripens. Inside, you'll find the seeds, commonly known as "coffee beans," which can be easily dried, roasted, and ground at home ☕️
