HVH: "'Ice Fairy' is a delightful variety for anyone who wants to grow a hibiscus with lots of light blue flowers. This variety grows into a round, full bush and sports multiple soft blue flowers with white eyes that give the whole plant an almost magical feel. The flowers are rarely over 5" in width, but the pretty, delicate colors and the tendency toward multiple blooms gives real charm to 'Ice Fairy.'
The bush is medium sized with good vigor, reaching 3-4 feet tall in a pot and 5-6 feet tall in the ground over several years. 'Ice Fairy' is a child of 'Gator Pride' and 'Blue Ballerina.' Released from HVH in 2010."
