"In My Missouri yard, our plants grows to about 6 ft. and blooms
heavily." Long-Lived, Easy-Care Flowering Beauties for Every
Garden. Our Hibiscus is a cold-hardy perennial With a tropical flare.


Plants die back in autumn and go dormant during winter. During winter
cover the dormant rootstock with a mulch-layer this will also help the
plant retain moisture next spring. The rootstock makes new shoots by
mid spring and late Summer brings showy rich pink flower cups.
Even though Deep snows causes our Hibiscus to die back to its roots
each fall, new and additional "canes" (vertical, flowering stems) sprout
during late spring and begin blooming after growing several feet tall.
They will probably be the last thing to sprout in the next Spring,
fertilize early with some Miracle Grow or similar.

The seeds were Freshly collected from
our very own garden each year starting in
the Month Sept and will continue into
October.
Plant your seeds on the same schedule
you would plant fall plants or hold for
Springtime.
China has had a long love affair with the
hibiscus. The flower appears on Chinese
porcelain plates dating back to the Ming
dynasty (1368–1644). Hibiscuses also
appear on ancient Chinese silk tapestries.
A recent art exhibition, Treasury of the World:
Jeweled Arts of India in the Age of the Mughals,
at the Saint Louis Art Museum, showed that
tropical hibiscuses were also prominent
features in the art of the Mughal Empire (1526–
1858), which included much of India,
Bangladesh, and Pakistan. The hibiscus motif
appears on an exquisite gold and enamel lidded
cup from the mid-17th century. The handle of
the cup lid was crafted into a hibiscus bud, ruby
red with golden sepals.
Easy to grow. Direct-sow seeds in now or next
Spring, or for earlier blooms, start indoors 6 to
8 weeks before last frost. They love heat and
direct sun.
Exotic beauty year after year. Large, shrub like
plants make excellent accents for mixed
borders or as potted specimens. Eye-catching,
8-12" blooms dazzle from mid-summer to frost.
Very hardy despite their tropical flair.
