The plants grown for cultivation are quite a bit different. They have been hybridised so many times they are sterile and no one is sure what they were originally.

Wild hibiscus grows all by itself in the wild. Cultivated is grown by someone who carefully tends the plant. The cultivated ones might have bigger flowers or more vivid colors.
