Hybridizing hibiscus
Hi guys & girls,
Besides a nepenthes enthuasist, i am also a collecter of hibiscus plants. I have some beautiful blooming plants which i've tried pollinating them before but failed many times. You guys with any success would like to help me? I've learn that seed grown plants from the parent pod may differ from the blooming style, leaf structure and may end up with eye-catching flowers. This website shows how to pollinate hibiscus but i've failed. Any help will be apprecited!

Re: Hybridizing hibiscus
I've grown a hibiscus before with six petals but sadly it died. Ali, don't give up. Keep trying to pollinate them. I don't like hibiscus that much. I collect orchids instead.

Re: Hybridizing hibiscus
I don't grow hibiscus, but here's an article about a lady in Hawaii who hybridizes them. The article includes her email address, so you might ask her some questions by email.

Re: Hybridizing hibiscus
I have a hybiscus that's about as tall as I am, but I can never get it to produce seeds. The pod always falls off before it developes.
