Any hibiscus nuts in here?

i have several varieties of a Hibiscus species in seed form if anyone is interested. this offer is open to US residents with the exception of those in California or Arizona........ sorry but dont get mad at me take it up with your departments of agriculture, they say you cant have it. please dont ask me to send them to you cause i wont........pm me for details
 
woah is hibuscus a drug or something?
 
no this one is technically a fiber crop. dont want to smoke it. it has silica in the leaves. i guess they are afraid it will naturalize.

I like them they are beutiful.
I think you can eat the green pods?
 
that would'nt apply to Cp's leaveing A.Z
and Cp's comeing into A.z ?
 
no. its just this particular plant as far as i know. the only CPs iv ever seen restricted(other than CITES restrictions) is some of the aquatic Utrics. some states lable some of those species as invasive weeds.

i ment as far as going back and forth INSIDE the United States. there may be additional laws when shipping to and from Hawaii.

Hey Rattler, The iguanas in my neighborhood just love to eat my neighbors hibiscus flowers and for some reason they prefer the pinks and reds.  Only after they have eaten all of the colored ones will they start on the whites...must be a delicacy or something
