    "The 6-7" flowers of 'Abracadabra' open in orange, then magically change to yellow the second day. In both colors, it has a striking two-toned lilac-pink eye. 'Abracadabra' is the offspring of two pink hibiscus, 'Long Tall Sally' and 'Stolen Kiss.' The bush is leafy, pretty and very upright. Released from HVH in 2012."
