Hibiscus by Dorothy Platt | Tropical 1950 Botanical Collotype

Hibiscus by Dorothy Platt is a lush vintage botanical collotype printed in 1950, showcasing bold, tropical hibiscus blooms in soft peach, buttery yellow, and sunny gold. Celebrated for their large, showy petals and vibrant garden appeal, hibiscus flowers bring an instant splash of tropical charm — beautifully captured in Platt’s crisp mid-century study.

Printed by Triton Press Inc. on fine art paper, each authentic collotype comes from unopened mid-century archives — never framed, never displayed, and preserved flat for decades. A true “new vintage” treasure, available exclusively through Pink Flamingos.
