Product Description
About Us
Here at Emerald Goddess Gardens, we strive to provide stellar products and growing tips that reflect our home-grown values. As a third generation female owned and operated small business, family is one of the most important parts of what we do. We are proud to have held on to many of the forgotten histories of the heirloom plants we grow today. Some might say the green thumb gene runs in our family, but we like to think our success comes from the decades worth of hands-on experience that we share with each other and with every order that leaves our nursery.
We can't do it all by ourselves though, so we continually aim to provide a flexible environment that works for our diverse female majority team. The hands that carefully select plants for our orders are an essential part of the family that our matriarch has grown to include women from varied economic, social, and cultural backgrounds.
Some of our most prized plants are those that are hard to find or no longer exist in nature. Maintaining stock on endangered and rare species allows us to increase accessibility for all while ultimately contributing to conservation efforts through commercial reproduction. Native species diversity and protection is very important to us. We take steps to ensure we never unknowingly transport invasive insects or plant pathogens and as such are qualified to ship plants to all 50 states year-round.
The Emerald Goddess Gardens family grows every day as we establish and maintain relationships with our customers nationwide.
Welcome to the family, let's get growing!
Queen of Dreams Tropical Hibiscus
Growing Tropical Hibiscus Outside the USDA Zone Range
Tropical Hibiscus are not easy to grow indoors. They will require special attention to survive and bloom reliably. Inexperienced growers should research growing requirements extensively before attempting to grow these plants indoors.
- Provide bright, full spectrum supplemental light
- Maintain temperatures above 70 degrees Fahrenheit
- Provide a container with adequate airflow and drainage
- Increase ambient humidity
- Avoid overwatering by watering only when the top inch of soil has become dry

Tropical Hibiscus
Tropical Hibiscus never fail to bring a luxurious equatorial feel to the landscape. The Hibiscus genus is extremely diverse, containing plants that produce flowers from teacup sized to as large as a dinner plate in nearly every color imaginable. Hibiscus are easily hybridized to create new flower characteristics which means their already wide range of flower types is constantly expanding.
- Blooms typically last 1 to 3 days, but are continually produced in tropical climates to create a never-ending show of flowers.
- Most hibiscus will reach maturity at 3 to 5 feet, though some varieties are grown in standard tree forms that grow taller.
- Regular pruning at the terminal tips of this plant will encourage it to become a full, bushy plant.
- Tropical Hibiscus will thrive in USDA Zones 9 - 11 though they can be grown outside the recommended zone range with special care.

4 Inch Starter Size Plants
Our starter size plants are always shipped rooted and growing in 4 inch diameter pots. These small plants are perfect for repotting into a larger pot and watching as they grow to maturity. We do not recommend planting 4 inch starters directly into the ground until they have grown larger and more mature.
We have decades of experience sending live plants across the country and do several things to keep your plants happy as they make their way to your front doorstep. Our plants are preventatively treated for insects before they begin their journey. Then, they are thoroughly watered and provided an adequate water supply for their trip. Finally, they are wrapped in paper to protect from transpiration stress and carefully placed in their box before being picked up for transport.
