A gardener's husband purchased a flowering plant they didn't recognize. It resembled a hibiscus but had differences. They needed planting and care advice.
Unknown flower
The plant is definitely a hibiscus (Hibiscus sp.), genus in the mallow family (Malvaceae). There are several hundred species native to warm-temperate, tropical, and subtropical regions. They can be annuals, perennials, woody shrubs, or small trees. The expert guessed 'Dubai Red Hibiscus' but recommended checking the label. They provided care tips: tropical hibiscus likes warmth; in cooler climates, grow in containers and bring indoors. Water by weight, fertilize weekly to monthly during growing season.
