Logee's Hybrids
Web SpecialsThe beholder is held in awe when this spectacular hybrid is in bloom. The upright plant is dense with slightly serrated foliage. Its brilliant yellow-edged flowers blend to a rich orange which is often spotted yellow and then blends to deep pink. Its growth is stocky and well-branched. A sunny area is best for optimum blooming. 'The Path' is a prolific bloomer and a good sturdy bush. The blooms mix fuchsia, pink and yellow in a bright way that charms everyone!

Tips for Success:
• Sun, sun and more sun.
• They are warm-growing plants and suffer if subjected to
cool temperatures over extended periods. As a rule, keep
temperatures above 65°F, especially in the winter.
• Water on visual soil dryness or plant wilt. Severe wilt can hurt
them. Careful watering is critical during the winter or anytime
when the light level is low and temperatures are cool.
• Under high light and warm temperatures they are
heavy feeders and need a balanced fertilizer applied
on a regular basis. A fertilizer like Dyna Gro “Grow” 7-9-5 will
help induce blooms.
• Flowering varies widely between varieties. Full sun, warm
temperatures, a balanced fertilizer and careful attention to
watering will produce the best results for your hibiscus.

Spectacular Review by Kelley
How do you rate this product? Even when very young, this produces prolific amounts of stunning blooms. They should have named this one "Happiness" or "Joy" instead of "The Path" because the color it produces just makes you smile every time you see it. (Posted on 5/20/2017)

Gorgeous blooms! Review by Crystal
How do you rate this product? My husband and I purchased a Path hibiscus almost 2 years ago, and though it's a slow growing plant, it's absolutely worth waiting for. It bloomed 4 times this winter, and it's just bloomed again this week with 3 more buds ready to open any time now. Since the new England weather is a little unstable and the plant is touchy, we keep it in our big window and it does extremely well. Eventually we will move it outside when its strong enough. What a beauty! (Posted on 4/18/2017)

Very pretty, long lasting blooms Review by steven
How do you rate this product? I have had one Hibiscus for over 25 years and decided to branch out. I bought "The Path a few weeks ago ( I cheated and got one with buds from the greenhouse.) It's blossomed and it's true to photograph: large pretty orange to salmon inside, but hat got me its the bloom has lasted about three days so far. My one other has simple orange blooms that last one day.
Very happy with "The Path" and look forward to "Delta Dawn" budding out soon. (Posted on 3/27/2017) -
A diva, but well worth it! Review by Julie
How do you rate this product? I was given "The Path" by a friend after the gasline to my greenhouse froze in Nov. 2014. "The Path" had a rough first winter, dropping buds and leaves in the uneven temperatures, but after a summer outdoors and a new heater installation in the greenhouse, this plant makes my life beautiful. She's grown up to my chin and is loaded with bud after enormous bud. The shiny, deep emerald leaves and spectacular blossoms--up to 7" across--give beauty for three days, opening slowly, and remaining open for two full days. I don't know what I did without her. Keep her warm (above 60 at all times) and give her sun and slow-release fertilizer and stand back. Wish I could attach a photo! (Posted on 2/5/2015)
