I enjoyed researching this question...turns out that there is a lot of symbolism connected to the hibiscus, although what it meant in your dream you will have to work out. Hopefully some of this information will help you come up with some insights. And thank you for sharing this wonderful dream you had!
From a lovely essay online:
"The meaning of hibiscus: Seize the opportunity. Rare beauty. Delicate beauty. Inspired by love. It lasts only one day though, then wilts. So does that mean love will one day wilt, too? That wouldn’t make any sense because hibiscus is consumed by love. Maybe it means that an opportunity should be seized before it wilts. Opportunity of what? Take the risk and prepare to be shut down, like the hibiscus closing its petals after a day. The delicate beauty and petals of the hibiscus is like the emotions of human beings--something that vulnerable shouldn’t be messed with. The beauty of hibiscus are rare, like finding love. Love is rare. Right. Love is rare. The hibiscus is also inspired by love. Addicted. Always thinking of love. So in a way you are like the hibiscus? In a way. I guess. Fragile and delicate, always consumed with love. It inspired a poem.
Pretty Red Hibiscus
by John Noble & Rube Wolf
Pretty red hibiscus
I've admired you right from the start
Pretty red hibiscus
You're the flower of my heart
Every day you're fairer
Than the fairest flower that grows
Pretty red hibiscus
You're beautiful everyone knows
Though you may not be scented
Like the other flowers are
But when the day has ended
You're as fair as an evening star
Pretty red hibiscus
I've admired you right from the start
Pretty red hibiscus
You're the flower of my heart
The hibiscus was fiery red. Red, symbolizing passion, courage, action, spontaneity, and impulsiveness. Was it a coincidence? Or was it fate that I was given a red hibiscus and not the nearby yellow roses? The color of red also means love, anger, power, danger, heat, and warning. Love. Passion. Danger. Heat. Warning. The color fits, the flowfriendship, beauty, inspiration, selfless acts of love. The meaning of the colors have a connection don’t they? I think it means that although love isn’t there anymore, it will never die.

From other websites:
Hibiscus symbolizes beauty and fertility, its 5 petal flowers speak of protection and its random growth that of chaos. It is used for spells involving randomness, glamours and repelling negativity.http://www.uponreflection.co.uk/ogham/plants/plants_h.htm

Dreams are funny things. You might want to start with how you feel when you see a hibiscus or hear the word. Sometimes a dream is just your mind sorting out things, beauty, light and air. Some facts, Hibiscus has many varieties and some are use for tea.
The word may be of Celtic background.

I feel the same way about Hibiscus..the flower..how odd for you to have a dream telling you that. I often have Hibiscus in my dreams (such as in my hair, floating in the ocean, etc.) I will poke around and see if there is anything substantial to that thought..
