Unusual hibiscus

9 years ago

I saw this at Lowes. It didn't have a tag and it was the only one of this type in the store. What could it be?

looks like a cross between the species...too bad there wasn't a tag on it.

it looks a lot like an El capitolo - but don't those come in varied colors?

Cast1,

This variety has been called El Capitol "Bloody Mary". It has the white markings. Likely the name is the reason there is no tag.
