Hibiscus are large, fast growing plants producing large white, pink or red flowers. Some can grow 8 feet tall and produce flowers 10 inches across. They bloom from August to October and prefer full sun and any garden soil which is not too dry. Some hibiscus are suitable only as greenhouse plants when grown in Michigan.

The seed germinates in 2 to 4 weeks at 70 to 80 degrees. Soak the seed overnight in warm water before sowing.
