My Midnight Marvel is still budding up.

I put Cranberry Crush in my want list. I like the darker reds better than the bright reds.

There are early flowering species ( Luna ) is starting to bloom early and small. Available in 4 colors in general. Dwarf varieties. If you have a few years of the stem (4-5) , it can regulate flowering . It may be that when the drive is 30 cm , the half- fold visszacsípni . This kényszeríiti to the plant to be bushy . The other remaining flourishes drive faster. The visszacsipett drive later start to flourish . This 4-5 year old plants of all varieties can be done . In general, the kinds of higher.

virginiarose well it says it's important to a lot of water . You will still need lots of sun next to a good and continuous nutrient. I 10-30-20 I'm using . ( Peters. )

There are some breeds that elvirágzik soon . I noticed Kopper King .
There are extra-large flowered varieties (30 cm). They then begin to flourish. The flowering is thus last longer. The foliage color is very nice. Summer storm like that.

I 'm afraid a lot of variety , so the bloom begins so early and the later flowering begins when Luna is in bloom.

Do you have seeds of the dark one, I love any flower that is black color! By the way I'm part Hungarian and my uncles name is Americanized of yours, les.

Stopped drinking coffee at home a few years back so I could bring myself to stop baking.
I still drink coffee and eat baked things OUTside my home, but don't tempt myself to eat a LOT of sugared wheat while home.
And I mean a loaf of banana bread would come out of the oven and the smell would drive me to eat at LEAST half of it while it was still warm.......

Anyway, I wasn't even sure I HAD a pastry brush anymore.
But I rooted around in the utensil drawer and found it.
Took it outside and, with 3 Midnight Marvel blossoms to work with, I hand pollinated for the first time.
Here's hoping I do get seeds and they do come true!

I started some seeds of another hardy hibiscus (noid, but reportedly red flowered) this spring.
They're no more than 3" tall, if that.
How many seasons does it generally take for them to bloom?

They need your help for pollination.
Take a pastry brush, oaintbrush, qtip, whatever, and brush the pollen onto the stigma yourself.

Not all will come true though, I I don't yet know which is which.
