HVH: "'Snowy Sky' is a true blend of its parents, 'Fifth Dimension' and 'Renaissance Blue.' The 5-7" flowers show white spots like 'Renaissance Blue' in summer and silvery rays like 'Fifth Dimension' at any time. In spring and fall it is more of a solid purple. 'Snowy Sky' inherited its frequent blooming quality from both parents, who are among the most floriferous of modern hibiscus. This variety is a moderately slow grower, but is still expected to reach 3 feet in height in a pot and 4-5 feet in the ground within a few years. 'Snowy Sky' shows off as many looks as a mountain sky through the year, and makes a worthwhile addition to any hibiscus collection. Released from HVH in 2010."
