Beautiful colouring, Toto. I have a hibiscus in the garden but have never seen seeds. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you both. I can't really give any advice as mine has lots of seeds every year without any help from me. If either of you would like some seeds, send me a pm with address and I will send you some.

Do you have lots of them then ..and do the seeds really do well...? I really like hibiscus..but have never grown one outside.

The seeds are very easy and raise Cat. Send me an address in Wales or the US to send them an they will be yours in a few days.

I have never supported them Jacque but it won't do them any harm if you feel that they need it. As for size, they will eventually grow to the size of a small tree or large shrub but they are slow growing. The one from which the seeds came from is about ten years old and is about 6ft tall and gets covered in lots of flowers. It will probably be about two or three years before you see any flowers. Whatever you do, don't mollicoddle them as they are perfectly hardy.

Wish I knew where I am going to be for sure Toto..it would be easiest on you to send them to a Wales address..but then I am not sure when I will be getting back there...???? Like to think the end of July but with the air rates so high ..may wait a bit longer... have to see how my house leases out too yet.

Tell me address wherever you like amd I will send them. Your not thinking of leaving Larry behind are you?

8 Jun, 2009

 

LOL...Larry got left behind last time with my daughter...he tore up her house and was brought back and cared for here..lol..not sure what I am going to find to do with him..he is a beast. The family all adores him..but he is very territorial. Go's with being a Maine coon it seems. Never tried taking him out of his territory before... :(
