I ordered seeds last year, one was a Yellow Hibiscus. I have a red hibiscus tree for over 10 years. and this yellow doesn't look like it .The leafs are different ,the flower looks a little the same but the stingma doesn't grow out of the petals like my other tree. Now I see the leafs have grown to look more like the tree I have .But it's not as dark green and thick.
So is this how young hibiscus grow,or did I get the wrong seeds?
This is the picture of the hibiscus last year in the fall when I took it indoors.
Thank you

To the far left of the flower that green is my rabbit foot fern, the leafs in the middle look at .
Oh one more thing on the leafs and stems are crystals like salt was sprinkeled on it .Is that something the plant is making himself or some new bug I do not know. I just saw it today
Thanks again
