Well I finally found a "true red" or so the picture goes... nothing more is known at this time.

The flower is a double but it will give me a new project to work on creating a really nice single if this is not a doctored photo?

Given that A) it's a horrible picture lacking detail
B) reviews for Direct Gardening are more than 66% negative reviews....

Your conclusion should be forgone.

These are also sold on ebay with detailed photos with 27 excellent reviews from the people who bought them.

However the leaves on their photos look like double tropical being sold as ROS?

I think I have the one in this ebay listing. You can see my picture here

I bought from Walmart, and the tag says Hibiscus Red.

Hi Kachana, the link takes me to a login but no photo. Do you know if the one you have is a true rose of Sharon as in the winter hardy variety or do you have the tropical red double rosa-sinensis?

OOPs..The new link is Here

I don't know much (actually, anything LOL) about ROS or hibiscus, but the tag says tropical plant.

that last photo is a tropical red double rosa-siensis. They need to have special care over winter

Merity, thanks. I plan to bring it inside :)

If you actually found a true red, I'd want it too :)
Best I could do is hot pink (*sigh*).
