Hibiscus


Hibiscus

Not sure what variety sorry.
The seeds look like they have mohicans.

Planted from seed ( 28th April ) taken from a tree that has been in the front garden since we moved in.

I got the idea from the internet about nicking the outer case and then soaking them in warm water for 20 minutes.

I did that but forgot about them so they were in soak for about 8 hours ( blushes ) However after planting they have sprung into life after only 5 days.

Fingers crossed they will survive because I LOVE the tree they came from when it is in full bloom.

I will post a weekly update in my garden ( if I remember LOL )

That is great you have done well, seems that extra soaking did n't harm them one bit.
