Hibiscus tree






The picture at the top is of my Hibiscus tree I planted in Hickory about 9 years ago. Of course it has no leaves now but it is alive and doing well. It is about 8 feet tall and probably 5 feet across when in full bloom. The mother tree from Archdale is a bit taller, maybe 12 feet high.

The orange bloom is from a Hibiscus tree I planted last year but it is probably a tropical and may not come back this year. The purple bloom is almost the color of the ones in Archdale and Hickory and will be the color of the flower of the ones I will plant here; the ones I'm growing from seed, even though the textbook says I can't.
