"Jupiter" Hibiscus 3-08-23

In Our Living Room Window
where he has been growing since early December 2022.

***********************

"Giant hibiscus 'Jupiter' blooms with huge 8-10" single flowers in blended rings of yellow, tangerine orange, candy pink and a bright red eye. 'Jupiter' is a great bloomer and comes from two parents that are among our best bloomers - the giant mother 'Radiant' and the tried and true father 'Simple Pleasures.' The bush is upright, beautiful and medium sized. Released from HVH in 2014. Hybridizer: C. Black"

That sure looks different than above. It's amazing how time-of-year, weather-of-the-day and indoors-vs-outdoors changes the flowers' size and color. Plus, how long they last on the plant.
