Betcha haven't seen one of these before....
« on: August 25, 2009, 12:17:42 PM »








Unless of course, your name is Joyce....

Remember this, Joyce?  For some odd reason I found it difficult to propagate, but I do have a start in a pot I could send you if you want it.

For those of you who are not Joyce, the name of this Hibicus is "Pond Scum". 

I just love this plant, which was a gift to me from Joyce some years ago.  Wow, that's four times Ive used her name in this thread.  I wonder if it made her nose itch?

Too late in the season to take you up on that offer now, but maybe next year?  :)
Peace to all  ... Joyce

Joyce, you got it.  It will spend the winter in the hoop house, but come spring, it is yours.
