SUNSET Hibiscus: Too Late

davemichigan
15 years ago

I am given some SUNSET HIBISCUS seeds this year, but I haven't started them yet. Do you think it is too late to have flowers for this year? How long will they flower from seeds? Should I just save the seeds for next year?

Our first frost date here is October 15.

Thanks in advance!
