Re: Hibiscus

I hope my youngest doesn't find out about it -- she would dearly love to have an iguana.

Reminds me of the time a client on Boca Grande complained that a large iguana had been eating all the blooms on her "Seminole Pink" hibiscus hedge for a week and was there anything we could do? Sure. Next time the maintenance crew stopped by, two of the Mexicans caught it and, we assume, had it for dinner.

Dear All,

I have a five foot tall hibiscus that is at least 10 years old. It goes out
in the late spring and comes back inside in the fall. It will bloom for a
few months in the winter and then takes a rest. Sometimes it gets a good
haircut before going back outside.
I pick off leaves on branches I intend to prune back and feed the leaves to
my bearded dragons (lizards). They enjoy the blossoms as well. I have two
other hibiscus that are more compact and also come indoors.
