I got this plant from a friend, can anyone help me to ID this plants? What kind of hibiscus is this?
The plant is rather short, only 1.5 feet, the flower is orange color, size is like coin. It can produce seed's pod by itself without hand pollinate. After it is ripe, it will break, the seeds is furry.
Anyone interested may swap seed with me.
The plant grow very fast, this is about 6 months, but doesn't seem to grow tall. I now planted in flower pot.
Close up on the flower and seed pod.
After it bloom, will have seed pod by itself. This is a mature seeds pod and seeds.
chia, that plant is Hibiscus hirtus.
