    HVH: "'Wild Blue Yonder' is one of our biggest blue hibiscus flowers. It blooms with 7-9" single flowers in a light purplish blue with a dark red eye. The flowers are very consistent and hold their color. The parents of 'Wild Blue Yonder' are 'Moonstruck' and 'Blue Denim.' The bush is medium-sized and upright. Released from HVH in 2011."
