Just wanted to show off my Luna Hibiscus (sorry to show off, but I've been eagerly awaiting its blooms and they are so pretty!). I am in zone 6 and bought these from Home Depot after having bad luck with another Luna plant. I have since found out that I had to mulch them heavily for the winter, which I did, with success.
They still bloomed pretty late, though (late August). Is this normal?

Love the color contrast with the dark green and yellow.
Just stunning!

Simply beautiful! These look like Disco Belles (shortest variety)...do you know what makes them a Luna Series? I started mine from seed from GWeb trade early spring in a cat litter bucket with the best soil possible, then transplated to right area, and believe it or not, I got some too, but very late in NY State, but beautiful none-the-less. Good luck to you...you will love them.
