Field Notes

Description:

The Hugs & Kisses blooms are 7" wide with smoky silver-blue overlapping petals and ruffled peach edges. The striking blooms are complimented by the full and uniform growth of the shrub.

Spectacular 7" blooms.
Peach trim fading into a striped blue grey.
Creates a full, uniform bush.
An elegant blossom sure to please any gardener.

Additional:
Hibiscus are great plants for tropical blooms and foliage. They can be grown year-round in the northern U.S. - noting greenhouses. Although you cant expect the same lush growth and bloom numbers while your plants are over-wintering inside under less-than-tropical conditions, they will be ready to reward you once placed outside when warm weather arrives.

Notes:

This color is accurate for the bloom 12 hours after it blooms. When it blooms, it is very bright and bold in color.

My other spotting is for the flowers within the first 12 hours:
