Organic Large Exotic Hibiscus «Galaxy»
Though many of the plants in the Hibiscus genus grow in tropical or semitropical regions, several hardier species such as this one are native to North America.
Experimental gardener Thomas Jefferson included this species of hibiscus in his list of native plants that had possible medicinal value. The influential pioneer of American gardening Bernard McMahon spoke very favorably of this flower, recommending it for home gardeners in 1806. The genus name Hibiscus comes from the Greek word for “mallow,” the name of a common flower. In the language of flowers, hibiscus signifies delicate beauty or gentleness.How to Grow

They should be sown into a well-drained, sandy compost at any time of the year, and covered thinly with sand or grit and kept moist. Keep at between 15 and 20 degrees C. Seeds generally germinate within 4 to 6 weeks although some varieties may take much longer.
