Hibiscus is actually pollinated by hummingbirds! Red flowers always most likely are because birds can see red better than insects (they're better at the blue and purple part of the spectrum). Also, the pollen is far away from the nectar. If a hummingbird puts its tongue into the flower, the pollen will be deposited on its back. An insect would never touch the pollen when crawling into the flower to the nectar. ^^
