Your fave source for tropical hibiscus

LOCAL FLOWER CNTER NEAR YOU?
Nobody here near me sells Cajun hibiscus and all the tropical ones they do have are more common unnamed, I'm looking for named Cajun hibiscus I know there are a few web sites out there that sells them, I just can't remember. Thanks though for your help. my lowes has a horrid selection of everything.
please don't get plants from those box stores. It brings me to tears to see how they treat the plants they offer for sale.
For tropical hibiscus, use Matt Martindale http://www.hibiscusplace.com/ or Hidden Valley http://www.hiddenvalleynaturearts.com/acatalog/index.htm. They are great places to buy with great selection and quality.
Those were the places I was looking for! Thanks for the links! Snd u r right. They do not care for those plants there.
Hello Kathy,
There was another supplier that I forgot to mention. http://www.fancyhibiscus.com/
Some complained about his plants, but I always had good experience with him and so I believe I should mention him too.
Good luck.
An excellent source for tropical hibiscus is Hibiscus Lady Nursery (link below).
This nursery is owned by Jill Coryell and she is hybridizing tropical hibiscus. The results of her work are unbelievable. I have been getting plants from Jill for 3 years now and I continue to be impressed with the high quality of everything including the plants, their flowers, packaging, labeling, customer service, and I could go on and on. Within a short amount of time, I felt like I had made a new friend, and all of it via emails.
The plants I receive from her are exceptional and in great condition upon arrival, and she's shipping from Hawaii to me in Atlanta, GA.
