Hello All,

My name is Kristen and I am hooked! I have always loved and owned hibiscus, until one day while surfing the web for a photo to show someone what one looks like so she could paint it, I came across my first Exotic Hibiscus Hybrid! I was blown away. Now 2 weeks later I have 6 coming in the mail!!! I want to get into the this world so badly.

My home is small and in CT, so I need to be choosy since I must bring them in during the winter, which could be long in CT. I want to try to make my own babies! I am very creative. So far I have a 2 year old basic "box store" red hibiscus, along with a yellow hibiscus with red center. I also have a small Cajun Blue which has not bloomed yet. In the mail I have Bonnie Lass, Sleeping Beauty, Gabriel, Voodoo Magic, & City Slicker. I desperately need, cant live without, Cindy's Heart, Saffron, & Bella du Jour. (these I found on Hidden Valley Hibiscus site).

I can't seem to find these available for sale anywhere. Can anyone help? Also, I was going to purchase some more from someone in FL, Geaux Tigers (aka Gator Pride), Tigers Eye, Whirlygig, & Nightfire. Does anyone know any of these? Suggestions? Are they good to have when I don't have much room? Or would it be more worth my while to purchase tried and true CV's like Fifth Dimention, The Path, Rainbow Christy, & High Voltage? I don't like their colors as much, but have read that they make for great parents, so to speak. Can anyone help this new Hibiscus NUT??!

Anxiously waiting some your awesome advice! Here is a photo I took a week ago of my unknown yellow. I think its something breeze?? I dunno...

Thanks,
~Kristen
