I live in upstate NY which is growing zone 5. One of my neighbors has a hibiscus with large 6 inch maroon flowers. The place where she bought it went out of business and I would like to know where I can get one. Thank you.
Hibiscus plant for cold climates?
You'll want to look for hibiscus moscheutos. I have 3 plants that I started from seed. You could ask your friend to save some seed for you. Very easy to do if you're a winter sower. For info on winter sowing... http://www.wintersown.org. It's so easy! Mine bloomed the first summer after planting.
There are a lot of resourses if you're interested in purchasing the plant. You can google in the name hibiscus moscheutos for nurseries that sell it. I know Bluestone Perennials http://www.bluestoneperennials.com/b/bp/... has some...not sure who else.
Reply:I think that I got mine a couple year ago at Home Depot.
