Willy,
There is also a "hardy" hibiscus that WILL survive here in the Atlanta area. I have two and they are growing like crazy after turning into brown sticks during the winter. (Had me worried. My first time growing hibiscus.) I got mine at Pike's. Will post pics as soon as they bloom. They are real water hogs, though.

I had a tropical hibiscus on the deck last summer and it was beautiful. However, I have a bad ant problem and I didn't want to risk taking it inside for the winter ... so I just let it go. Here it is in its glory ... :-)
