How to Plant Perennial Hibiscus Seeds

The perennial hibiscus is an extremely hardy flower. These plants will die down to the soil during the winter, but they will sprout new shoots the next spring. These plants can also grow anywhere from three to eight feet tall. The flowers of the perennial hibiscus can reach 4 inches in size, and vary in color from red to pink to purple. Planting hibiscus seeds is very simple. They must be started indoors in seed trays and eventually transplanted outdoors. After that, all you need to do is enjoy them.
