Several of us bought some Large Flowered Hibiscus plants earlier this
year. Two of my three have grown to about 3 feet high, but no sign of
flowers. Has anyone else had any success?
One plant, though treated exactly the same, has shown no sign of
growth.

I have three, all about three feet tall, plenty of stems and leaves.
No sign of a flower or even a flower bud. Though mine are in their
second year (didn't flower in first either).

I took 2 grandchildren to the Blue Reef Aquarium in Bristol last week.
There's also a tropical area with planting under glass. I saw a few
very similar plants not much bigger than mine, but with a few flowers.
I guess they need patience and heat!
