Hello Throne!
Hibiscus plants originally came from China. They arrived in the U.S. in 1842. Coming in a wide variety of colors and sizes, they are an affordable choice for a vibrant garden. The color of the hibiscus native to China is usually red. Some of the other hybrid color ranges are white to yellow, orange to scarlet, and various shades of pink.
The hibiscus plants can grow all year round in sunny environments without frost. About 250 species come in perennial herbaceous and annual forms, as well as, woody shrub and small tree varieties. Perennial hibiscus plants will carry the label of hardy.
Not only do they make landscape beautiful, different varieties are used around the world for culinary and medical purposes.
