When we left Florida in 1995 for Boston one of the things I knew I would
truly miss were my beautiful red Hibiscus flowers in the back yard. At
that time I was not aware of the Rose of Sharon. But we had one in
Massachusetts and now again in New York. They're very similar looking
and equally beautiful. Even so I couldn't help but raise some Hibiscus
(red of course) on the back porch last summer where they did fine until
the fall.
