Professional Growing Information Absolutely stunning!!! First blossom opened this morning, and I could not be any happier! The blooms are large, and the color is very striking, almost neon orange with an extremely subtle bright pink blended into the edges. It was a very windy day today, and it also rained for a while and the flower is still fully open and intact unlike most tropical hibiscus. So glad I purchased two! I’d probably purchase 200 if I didn’t have to house them in the winter. Pictures do not do it justice.
