"'Acapulco Gold' is one of the best selling HVH varieties due to its eye-catching colors. This highly recommended variety blooms with 7-9" vivid flowers in yellow, orange, and white with a deep red eye and a bit of a pink bleed. It is a prolific bloomer and is turning out to be one of our most floriferous multi-colored hibiscus. The bush is vigorous, with a somewhat open growth habit, and easy to grow. 'Acapulco Gold' is the offspring of 'Fifth Dimension' and 'Georgia's Pearl,' and it has inherited the most positive qualities of both its parents. Released from HVH in 2008."
