I've grown several red Texas Star Hibiscus and really enjoy their pretty blooms but I wanted a white one also. I have it now! It didn't bloom last year but it sure is making a show for me now.:D

I'll save seeds for anyone who wants some. I was looking back thru my trades book to see who sent me the original seeds. It was Allison. I don't think she joined us here but I send much thanks to her for those seeds.

I have a few of the white ones I bought on ebay and I better sow them before they get too old. Spiderlily's came up so I know they are still good.

Melissa, they're 6-7 inches across. The white ones are a little bigger than my red ones. Dor, none of mine bloomed the first summer I planted them. Good luck with your seeds.

Thanks Gloria. As soon as this week of rain dries up I am going to sow them.
