These are my Texas Star Hibiscus. They like regular watering and will get droopy when thirsty. Other than that, they are growing in sandy loam in my back yard and seem to spread easily. I've been told that the leaves look like Marijuana leaves but I have any Cannabis planted to compare. Both plants froze back to the ground in the winter but came back strong. Other than water, they are pretty maintenance-free. These are in partial sun and get 3-4 hours sun a day. Right now each plant has more than 20 buds that seem to open one at a time. The flowers are the size of saucers and the plants are over 6' tall.
