"Jing Luo" expounded:

I got this plant from a friend but I don't know its name. If possible,
please also tell me whether it can survive outdoor in winter (I live in

First off, this is a text only newsgroup, please post your pictures
over in alt.binaries.pictures.gardens.

Why is it to anyone's advantage to ban pictures from the newsgroup? If
the message looks too big for your connection speed don't look at it.
Pictures can be very informative.
It's some kind of hibiscus, and no, it won't survive the winter
outdoors in Ohio.
