I am currently looking for starters or seed from what I will refer to as dinner plate hibiscus. Yes I know please keep the technical info to a minimum. I want any color cultivar producing flowers ranging from 8 to 12 inches. I would like for them to be as close to hardy at zone 8 with minimal protection as possible. If you have any that meEt these specs im interested.

Almost any hardy hibiscus should meet the bill as to bloom size and hardiness. Every color of pink, red, white, purple, and some mixed.

edit-I will be happy to save some seed for you this season. Let me know color desires. You can look through my gallery to see the plants themselves.
