Last summer an avalanche of
trees crushed my back deck and all the ornamental shrubs that surrounded it including a 10 foot tall white hibiscus. I cut it back to the ground and this summer it began to come back but not like the
tree it had been. Also dozens and dozens of "things" sprouted all around the area. I thought they were
weeds and began pulling them but didn't get them all.
Today one of the "things" that I missed bloomed and produced a beautiful purple hibiscus
flower!!! How did this happen? The original
plant has been white for the 12 years I've lived here. Also, how can I harvest and transplant them? They are single stems with one
flower on them. Will they turn into a
tree like the one I used to have?
