My mom has this in a pot and it is huge!!! Not 25ft but maybe about 6ft and very wide.
I want this for the garden. I will keep it indoors until spring.
I also took another cutting of the orange double one. I had it years ago and lost it, my mom had taken a cutting and it's now a plant so my turn to take a cutting.

6ft/2m is a tiny plant. lol! :>)
I've never taken a cutting of Hibiscus. I should try one. Sounds like you have a good system for starting them from cuttings.
I really miss my big hedge of Hibiscus, when I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area. I had 6 varieties with different colors meshed together. I had hot pink, yellow, gold, white wings, San Diego Red, and a light orange.

This Hibiscus variety is so popular because it blooms so profusely all year.

Delonix,
I want to plant lots of Hibiscus in my garden this spring.
They look lovely and do really well here.

Yes, the more Hibiscus the better. Almost every yard and business have many planted here in San Diego.

It looks like H. rosa-sinensis 'White Wings'. It's one of my favorites. It grow into a large shrub or tree. My neighbor has one which is 25ft (7.6m) tall with a big trunk.
