A native to Southeast China but is on every continent except Antarctica. It is also known as Cotton Rosemallow, or Cotton Rose. It can grow to 15 feet tall in zones 9 and above. It does die to the ground in colder areas but will come back from the roots in zone 7. The flowers on this one come out in white and slowly change color to pink, then red by the end of the day. The red flowers will last a few days, then fall off. The flowers are 4-5 inches across, and many of them. The huge leaves are a foot across. There is also a single petal that I sell, and it is actually considered rare. It blooms early in Spring and will continue to flower through Fall. It grows well in full sun or partial shade and prefers rich, well-drained soil. The seeds will produce flowers in the first year. Zones 7-11 Germination Soak seeds in warm water overnight. Sow seeds 1/4" deep and lightly cover with soil. Keep moist in a bright spot. Do not cover with plastic but maintain a temperature around 65-75F. Germination 7-30 days.
