Yellow Mutabilis??
Comments (18)figinsanity I ordered it when it was on pre sale to replace my mutabilis. Got it with a Clark rose (Queen of Hearts) not in the USA ...and a couple other odds and ends. I knew I read it was a sport. But, after that, I read it was a seedling? I guess I'll have it this Spring. Quarantine will finally be done. Once I have it, IT WILL be easier to get! My plant is more than likely going to head to California as a gift. I am going to graft it on Fortuniana for my garden. Not sure on how long it would take for me to have it for sale. When I actually do, my listing / nursery it is going to be OGR and a more than 100 Ralph Moore minis I've been propping and sitting on for the moment. I bought 205 Ralph Moore roses when Nor East closed. Always need more. Keeping 2 gardens, one I rarely get to see is in NEPA. I live in Florida. Thank god my family has nursery space strange considering I'm a stone quarry rat =) Yellow Mutabilis L 19 Laos Milkmaid Queen of Hearts are 4 I ordered....See MoreConfederate Rose/Hibiscus mutabilis
Comments (15)Hibiscus syriacus (Rose of Sharon) cuttings readily root in water or in dirt if the cut area is woody. I've never heard of people taking cuttings of the herbaceous hardy types as the they're usually from seeds or root divisions. The tropical Rosa-Seninsus types are grown from woody cutting but not in water and are also tissue-cultured. The Texas Star hibiscus (H. coccineus) can be grown from woody cuttings but I don't know about in water. They can be readily seed grown. The first time I ever saw one was before it flowered and I thought it was a marijuana plant because of the unique leaf shape! Here is a link that might be useful:...See MoreMutabilis Rose for Postage
Comments (7)????? First off, it isn't a climber. It is a very large shrub in warm climates, but it isn't a climber. Secondly, I wouldn't automatically write it off as too tender. I've grown it here, and it didn't die. It didn't do much, but it didn't die. This is going to depend on rather exactly where you are, but it might be a nice shrub for you. If you really don't feel like dealing with it, then by all means regift it. But it isn't absolutely necessary....See MoreWhen does Mutabilis stop?
Comments (9)*tongue in cheek* My guess is about two winters in ;) I honestly have no proper idea being up north in the States. Mutabilis is lovely- so incredible, ever changing beauty! Thank you so much for sharing. Steven...See Morejacqueline9CA
