Alexandramou:
I had one a few years ago. I went to Hawai'i for my family reunion and when I returned it never got water and died of heat-stroke! (it was completely dried out).

That's too bad,,,the yellow is really nice. Bet you had a wonderful time in Hawaii though!!!

The yellow is commonly available for sale. I'll eventually buy another one.
Yes, it was nice to go back to Hawai'i and visit family and friends. I think I posted many photos...it was most likely before you joined GoY.

I will have a look at your older pics....
I bought a yellow hibiscus!!! Will go take a picture later on this afternoon.

Is your Hibiscus the gigantic flowering yellow or the smaller flowers?
11 Jul, 2011
Hhmmmm, how gigantic do you mean???
11 Jul, 2011
I'll show you.
The first row of pics have flowers which are 12in/31cm or more wide. These are the common large flower hybrids which grow in San Diego.

Havent' got one bloom on our Hibiscus this year at all, when it does bloom it's White...

Delonix,
My yellow Hibiscus flowered today, it is a small but beautiful flower. My white one (from cutting) flowered today as well and it is really big, four times bigger that the yellow. I took a few pictures but too sunny so I will try again this afternoon. Stuck in the shop now...

Crissue,
Your Hibiscus probably needs a lot more sun!! Mine bloom every day until it gets really cold....I've even seen a few flowers during winter.
16 Jul, 2011
We've got sun coming out of our ears lol...been praying for rain, which we're getting a little of at the moment..It's healthy, and growing...but might have been pruned too much at the end of season... :((
16 Jul, 2011
I prune my two red ones really hard...maybe yours just needs some more time???
I would love a little bit of rain now....the ground is starting to crack and it's only July!
