The petals are very thin and they overlap.

sharonsflowers and joseph, I think I may have some seeds, but it will take me awhile to find them. Better yet, I will be cutting the plant back in a few weeks when it warms up some here and will be delighted to send you both some cuttings when I do so. It is blooming in the greenhouse right now. I think that it will root very easily. I had taken cuttings from some other hibiscus and kept them in water for quite sometime after being unable to pot them. Roots were starting to emerge from the areas of the stems that had been submerged. Joseph, thanks for your comment about the photo. You both need to email me and provide your names and addresses so I can send you a few seeds and/or notify you when I prune the plant back. There is no need to send anything back in return. The ability to share this beautiful plant will be reward enough for me.

htop, how very nice of you to share your beautiful hibiscus. my email is: plu2609@bellsouth.net. i have some pink rose mallow seeds and some white also, although the white seeds are two or three years old. they have been refrigerated so i think they'll still germinate. i'm going to try get some of them growing this year. they are indigenous to this area and very beautiful. the flowers aren't nearly as large as cultured hibiscus and cup shaped but are really pretty. if you'd like to try some, i'd love to share with you. just let me know, and i look forward to hearing from you.

I have the pink variety of rosemallow, but not the white. I will be emailing you in a few days. I just returned home from a brief hospital stay and won't be up to snuff until a couple of days from now.
