Title: Wakanisha Post by: helixturnhelix on November 27, 2010, 08:27:39 PM Hey Charlie,
How do you compare this one to Creme de Cacao? It looks like the bloom is a bit more fancy? :) Title: Re: Wakanisha Post by: Charlie on November 27, 2010, 08:49:12 PM So far the flowers of Wakanisha have seemed more vivid to me than Creme de Cacao. What I like most about the variety is the bush and the amazing leaves. The 4 inch pots of it are like no other hibiscus I have seen - really wild looking leaves but quite intriguing.

I couldn't help but to grab one, I wanted to get a nice brown hibiscus, and it sounds like this one will fill that niche quite nicely. Do you have a pic of the plant's leaves?
All these term papers allow extra hibiscus surfing time :P Title: Re: Wakanisha Post by: Charlie on November 28, 2010, 10:22:34 AM Have to love that online "research" time. :)
I don't have a photo of the leaves of the small Wakanisha plants in the 4 inch pots but will take one and post it here asap. Charlie Title: Re: Wakanisha Post by: Doll on November 28, 2010, 02:18:31 PM Charlie, are there any varieties with variegated leaves? Isn't there an old garden variety that had variegated leaves? I think it had a tiny little red flower similar to Psyche.
Title: Re: Wakanisha Post by: helixturnhelix on November 28, 2010, 02:36:14 PM LOL yes, more research time today ;)
I look forward to seeing some pics! Perhaps even some pics of other interesting leaved varieties in the works? |
