Hibiscus Blue Satin, hardiness, seeds

14 years ago

Hi,

Has anyone successfully grown this shrub. I'd love to hear your opinion. I used to grow Blue Bird when I lived in a warmer zone and gave away lots of seedlings. I had success with one of these seedlings for about 8 years, over the sceptic tank, against a brick wall, but then had a cold winter that took it. I was heartbroken

Does anyone have seeds of this to trade?

Mary
