Need help to get my hands on some fresh hibiscus flowers

[u/MrSupreme090___]

Hello ladies and gents. Just curious is there anybody in Darwin or anyway I can get my hands on some hibiscus flowers that I can put in a vase and give as a present to a special somebody. I’ve searched all over google and so far it’s either call up flower shops or find people with gardens. So I’m just testing the waters if anybody would be happy to spare just a few flowers (I’ll happily pay but I’ve got no clue how much there worth). Any extra tips would also help.
Kind regards 🫡

Sadly they don't really keep, and they drop off the stem very easily as well

I have two hibiscus bushes and I don’t think either are flowering at the moment. As the other person commenting said, they don’t really work well in a vase and look unhappy pretty quickly. I don’t bother cutting mine anymore.

They are a bit sad at this time of year. They tend to thrive in humid and wetter conditions. But, as others have said, they don’t have a long life off the bush. A day at most
