Hibiscus ‘Plum Fantasy’
Hardy Hibiscus |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.270.310
Perennial Hibiscus are valued for their showy late-summer display of enormous satiny blooms, flowering best in areas with long, hot summers. They form upright, bushy mounds well suited to the back of a perennial border. This outstanding selection features puckered and crinkled petals in magenta-red over dark green foliage. Will tolerate average to wet conditions in full sun. Dies back completely to the ground in winter, but new growth is slow to appear in spring, be patient! A thick mulch for the first winter is recommended, especially in Zones 4 and 5. USPPP: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
