Fly, are you talking about tropical hibiscus?
spot on!
came across a site (exotichibiscus.com)---saw some gorgeous tropical hibiscus. the ones that caught my eye: Erin Rachael, Pride-Renee Blaschke, Eye of the Storm, Secrate Dream, and Stolen Kiss. ok, actually they ALL caught my eye! lol
as far as medium for the hibiscus container, i noticed some sites mentioned "porosity" as being very important. if i remember correctly, it said to add some sand (sharp, not round) and/or fine pine bark mulch to help with porosity. that's kinda why i thought i would ask what medium any hibiscus growers use in their containers. btw, i have never even heard of "sharp sand", and, have no idea whatsoever where one would get it! hahaha
ok, just went back to check on that website---i am going to show my "amatuer" status here---appears website just mentions hybrid hibiscus---didn't notice any direct mention of "tropical"---should i assume these are tropical hibiscus?
i did notice on the description of some of the hibiscus as "good for pots"---from this statement, should one assume some do better in pots than others? and, would it be wise to stick with a "pot rated" hibiscus?
side note: Treva, just noticed your post. i am so sorry to read that. thoughts and prayers indeed.
