If that's the case, I'm really surprised that they can grow that tall from seed in a single season. I did not see these being sold in pots anywhere in stores here.

The big ones in my last picture grew that big during the summer,I forget how tall they were now...maybe 15' +?

hardyjim,
I'm amazed that they can grow so fast! Your garden looks great 🙂

Everybody has had good suggestions for "red" plants. I'd like to add the hardy hibiscus, namely Texas Red Star and Lord Baltimore. I have both and love them, and they are hardy down to zone 5-6 I believe. They do need staking each new growing season and thrive on heat + water but wow instant tropical look!

Those are lady and lord baltimore and ol yella. Must not have a pic of texas red star. They die to the ground and get that big every year.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.
