Liverpool has had horse races of one kind or another for nearly four hundred years. A yellow hibiscus, a rarity in New Zealand, has been grown in the open by Mr J. Graham, of Rahiri Road, Mount Eden. The plant, which is at present flowering profusely, was raised from seeds sent from Rarotonga some years ago. The seeds were cultivated in a hothouse, and the small plants were transplanted by Mr Graham four .years ago. The flowers are strawyellow in colour, with indistinct tangerine markings.
