bettydee,

I ordered several hardy hibiscus plants from Wayside Gardens (sister company to Park's) - I ordered Fireball, Fantasia and Kopper King. They came in small 4" pots with no growth, so I planted them as they came last spring. Well, all of them grew to 3 or 4 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide the first summer, and the Fireballs in particular performed phenominally. The flowers were bright red and 9" to 10" across, just as advertised. We'll see how well they return this year. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. The plant in the picture was planted last spring, and the picture was taken July 12, 2004.
