Deebie said: Welcome! to ATP @Pinkmoonk. That is a beautiful braided tropical hibiscus tree that you have acquired. You mentioned putting it in the ground. I just want to let you know that it will not overwinter in your zone 6a garden, as it is not a hardy hibiscus. Frost/freeze will kill it, unless it is protected indoors. I over winter mine indoors (in my unheated garage) even in my zone 8a area.



Ahhh! Thank you for letting me know. I'll probably get a giant pot so that it can grow a little bigger and keep it indoors. Do you know which kind, if any, would do well in an outside garden for my zone?
