Reviews

I accidentally ran upon these at a xxxx. I wasn't sure how to take care of it so I only bought one until I could educate myself one their growing info. I love the Rose Mallow and immediately went back for more but of course they were sold out. If you run across one of these beauties for sale buy at least one. They are a little more difficult to grow than the standard hibiscus, especially here in Houston, TX. The heat can burn those buds before they even bloom and they like moist soil so you'll be watering at least once a day but the Rose Mallow is a beauty.
