This is one of my $1 hibiscus I got at Lowe's. I'd love to know its name and whether it's hardy or tropical,since it's starting to get cool here. It was tagged as a "Patio Performer" and says to bring it in if the temps drop under 50. I've read about telling the difference in hardy (matte leaves) and tropical (shiny leaves), and judging by that, if that's true, it would be hardy. The leaves are oval shaped and matte.
It's not the most beautiful bloom I've ever seen, but I'm really tickled with it, just the same. This is my first year growing hibiscus and I absolutely love them!
Thanks!
