    My wife bought a tropical hibiscus today, but we are not sure what type it is. I called the garden center and they said they do not know. All they can say is that it is a "Tropical Hibiscus." I thought it looked like a tigers paw, but then I think I am wrong, because there is no yellow around the edge.


    Thank you in advance.

    And that is one of the base species. Hybridizers have used that one for many years to create many of the hybrid forms they sell.
