Due to the recent discovery of the spotted lanternfly in South Carolina, California has restricted the shipment of plants from SC as well as 15 other states in which the spotted lanternfly had already been found. It was found over 100 miles from Nurseries Caroliniana, but the whole state has been put under quarantine until a treatment protocol can be worked out to resume shipments to California. Authorities hope that this can be accomplished by the end of the month.

David's Red Flowering Maple. Of course this is not a maple, but the leaf just remotely resembles the shape of some maple species. This Hibiscus cousin has a flower similar in size to 'Voodoo' with a brighter red flower which carries farther than 'Voodoo'. The color is more of an orange-red, and it is a large rapid grower, and here in zone 8 it has proven perennial. We would love to hear from gardeners who have grown it in colder climates to see how cold-hardy it really is. I would suggest mulching the base of ones plant for better winter protection. Grow it in full to part sun for best flower production. Give it good drainage but uniform moisture.
