Hibiscus "Funny Voodoo" is a VERY fast grower. It would be best to plant "Funny Voodoo" in the ground in frost free zones. It can also be grown in a smaller pot, but it will quickly fill a 12" pot in 12-18 months.

Thanks much. It does have unique coloration. I believe it's a fairly new variety and I ordered it online this past spring.
