#52 Plant Focus Mahogany Splendor Hibiscus Heirloom Leaves and Seeds #hibiscus #gardening #flowers
In this video I wanted to talk a little bit about Mahogany Splendor Hibiscus. It’s an interesting plant that I have dabbled in overwintering. The zone hardiness varies depending on the source. I have seen zones 7-11 to zones 8-9. I think we are on the edge in zone 7b & I think if I planted it in a warmer microclimate near our house I might just get it to overwinter outside. This plant is a wonderful foliage plant & is great for bouquets once the stems toughen a little and mature.
Thank you for stopping by! 😊

I have been saving vegetable seeds for many years from heirloom and open pollinated seeds. Over the last couple of years I had started to save my flower seeds as well. In this video I go over the basics of saving seeds. Saving seeds can be very in depth yet at the same time it can be very basic depending on what seed you are saving, if it’s a single variety, and where you live. I go over the ba...

    Zone 7B/8A, N MS. I've grown Mahogany Splendor Hibiscus for the past few years and this is the first year it bloomed due to a very delayed freeze. Although not freeze hardy, the plant does have enough time to bloom as you get near the Gulf Coast. The blooms are the same shade as the foliage so are hard to spot but are very much hibiscus blooms. Mine have not had enough time to dry on the plant, so I am not sure if the seed is viable, but I have harvested some faded blooms. Last weekend's frost got coleus, but I had several plants still blooming until Thanksgiving night when our temps dropped to 27. We have several low 20's in the forecast over the next few days.

    Just another reason to want to move to Greece! Very interesting. I rebelled against the idea of something that takes so long to be useable and planted a couple of Japanese Maples instead. Ironically they take years to be useable 😂

      @Heirloom_Leaves_and_Seeds 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, I bet their growing season is so nice! 😊 When I use this Hibiscus in bouquets customers will ask if they are Japanese Maples. They look so similar! 🌺 Japanese maples are so slow growing, but such a beautiful tree. 😊

    Good to know which ones stand up without staking 😂 Labyrinth is on everyone’s list. I’m trying Labyrinth Twist this year. It’s kind of a lavender version.

      It probably just needs more time. Spreading some nice organic compost around the base of the plant & mulching would help give it a little boost & help retain moisture and keep weeds in check. Happy growing! 😊🌱☀️

    I am growing sweet peas for the first time this year and I’ve learned patience is key. I soaked my seeds for around 36 hours, then placed them directly into the soil in a prepared bed. I watched and waited and finally, when the temp and water levels were just right, they started emerging. I really think my fairy magic had a small hand in this because nothing happened until spruced up her fairy house just a little, and then wham! They started waking up. 😂❤

      Sweet peas do need a few extra steps to grow & patience is definitely key, but they are worth the extra effort. 😊 I find that most of the time the seeds know just the right time to germinate. A little sprucing up never hurts! 🌱❤️☀️

    Do your cats bother the chickens? we have new ones that are now ready to be outside but worried about our cats.

      Luckily our cats do not bother our chickens. They usually just lay around and watch the chickens scratch around or ignore them. I think carefully and slowly introducing the cats to the chickens work best. I would especially be careful with any small bantams. 😊

    Hello, thanks for all your videos! I am new to planting flowers and am enjoying learning. I also appreciate you looking into how materials will break down in the soil. I try to live an organic and sustainable lifestyle and its important to me to not put microplastics into the soil. Thanks again!

      I also enjoy learning and in the gardening world there is so much to learn. 🌱 I have been growing organically for 10 plus years now and I love to see the resulting plant and animal diversity. This is my second year growing flowers & I am starting to focus on regenerative gardening and on reducing plastic use. ☀️

    Do you direct sow most of these?

      I like to direct sow whenever possible. I definitely direct sow the sunflowers and zinnias. I will start the chocolate lace flower and snapdragons indoors every time. The other varieties it just depends, if it’s early in the year I usually start indoors. 🌸
