BLUE RIVER II HARDY HIBISCUS Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
Hardy Hibiscus is easy to grow and adapts to most conditions. Remove dead canes in early spring to avoid root rot during the winter. One of the last plants to break dormancy in spring, and can stay dormant into early summer. Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.

Perrysburg, Ohio (Hardiness Zone: 5)
Have planted in my front yard for a few years and have at least 2 people stop by my house per season asking where I got this plant. Blooms beautifully and after first full year spreads to a beautiful full plant. Flowers do get heavy - plant near something to tie it up to once the gets into full bloom.
