regarding removal of seminolepride.jpg, weblink edit

Wikipedia is not a place for advertisement, we cannot afford to have commercial site links, advertisements here. Deliberately adding a image from a commercial site at the begining of the gallery is nothing but spamming and advertisement. The link, and the concerned image will be removed. --vineeth 04:54, 14 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Questions about rosa-sinensis edit

Recently two Hibiscus rosa-sinensis plants were planted in the back of our house. One is doing really well, but the other is looking, well, a bit sickly. I can't understand why one plant would look so good and the other would look like it lived five years of it's life in a desert. I've looked on the leaves of the ugly one. I could find hide nor hair of any bugs, why is it sick while the other is healthy? Please, are there any master gardeners who know? Botangirl 15:24, 20 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Temperature tolerance edit

The article states that Hibiscus rosa-sinensis does not tolerate temperatures below 10°. That's not my experience at all; the ones I know, which look like the canonical red Hibiscus, can tolerate temperatures down to 0°. Is this an exception? Otherwise the text should be changed.

Winter soil temperatures and thermal areas edit

I added a footnote and some text in the Cultivation content about Hibiscus planting and care. Interesting information on air and soil temperature plus planting locations. Df2 (talk) 06:28, 3 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Two articles on Hibiscus edit

There are two articles on the same subject viz Hibiscus and Hibiscus rosa-sinensis. I think these pages should be merged. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanu N (talkcontribs) 18:34, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

They are not on the same subject. One is on the genus Hibiscus, which has many species, the other is on one of the species within the genus, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis. Peter coxhead (talk) 11:19, 19 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Native range edit

@Tedster007: I think we should keep eFloras ([1]). eFloras has several citations goes back to Linnaeus while Kew merely makes an assertion. Invasive Spices (talk) 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Kew has considerable authority over eFloras... Tedster007 21:08, 24 February 2022

Probably true. I don't know who writes eFloras. Still if Kew make no effort at a citation... Invasive Spices (talk) 24 February 2022 (UTC)
