I bought this hibiscus 2 weeks ago on Ebay. I got the plant and it bloomed. However, the bloom was red with white markings. (See next post). I emailed the seller and this was the response:
"the hibiscus you have is a hibrid cross between the dragon fire and a white hibiscus it is not uncommon to have the parent bloom at times,just like I would not be surpised if next year you get more white in the flower then red .please read up on hibiscus hybrid crosses and also know that yours are 6 month new crosses.the older the plant gets the more blooms it will develop.also any other hibiscus that you have nearby will & can pollinate it to become a different color next year"

Can someone give me some advice, please?
Thanks, julie
