Ok I got it, the amount of hits are done so I will not talk about succulents for awhile. Here is an interesting Hibiscus. Anyone grown it and looks interesting. Doesn't climb so can be planted in a pot. BUT for us the zone is 5a so here it would be questionable.
Hibiscus ‘ColorChoice Sugar Tip Gold’ (Spring Meadow Nursery/Proven Winners)
This new variety of Sugar Tip rose of Sharon has bright, golden-yellow foliage variegation and showy lavender-purple double flowers. This is a seedless selection that prevents the spread of unwanted seedlings.
