A Taste of the Tropics! Hibiscus For Sale At Nature Hills!

perks of hibiscus

The Hibiscus family is a broad range of plants with enormous satellite-like blossoms in eye-popping hues! From Native Rose Mallows, to Hardy Perennial Hibiscus, to their Tropical Hibiscus cousins, you'll find a wide selection of incredible plants to suit your every desire!

Hardy Hibiscus differ from Tropical Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) in that they thrive in non-tropical climates, growing from the roots year after year despite USDA hardiness zones 4 to 6 winters! Hardy Hibiscus is also known as Rose Mallow or Swamp Mallow and are native to North America, and therefore love moist soil but they also take a page from their Tropical side and shine in the hottest heat and brightest sun all day without fading or wilting away!

One of the earliest promoters of Hardy Hibiscus was John Bartram (1699-1777). He gathered wild versions of the hibiscus and introduced them to the rest of the world. Modern cultivars began with Robert Darby who introduced the Lady and Lord Baltimore Hibiscus and they are still popular today!

Hardy Hibiscus blooms are large, ranging from 3 to 4 inches across to 10 to 12 inches across! The blooms are delicate, tissue-like, sometimes silky, sometimes crinkly, but always colorful!

The colors range from gleaming white, blush and hot pink, radiant magenta and red, to bi-colored, purple and plum! Each with a dramatic red-to-magenta eye at the center that acts like a bullseye for Pollinators like butterflies, bees, and Hummingbirds! It's unfortunate these blooms don't smell, but they are packed full of nectar and pollen goodness on their elongated and ornamental center stamen!

Plant sizes are varied and range from large to more compact sizes. Even though the plants have woody stems, they die back to the ground each winter and are classified as perennials.

Hardy Hibiscus begins blooming in mid-summer and blooms until the first frost. While Tropical Hibiscus blooms consistently nearly all year round when happy! Each flower lasts for only one day but each plant can produce hundreds of flowers!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Perennial Hibiscus and Tropical Hibiscus plants need full sun for the most blooms and strongest growth. Some Hardy Hibiscus moscheutos can even handle some afternoon shade or part sun too!

Plant in any kind of well-drained soil with regular moisture availability all growing season long. Use lifelong symbiotic support of Nature Hills Root Booster at the time of planting and top-dress the site with 3-4 inches of arborist mulch for best results!

Prune Hardy Hibiscus in the early spring before new growth begins to emerge - but be patient. These plants can be one of the last perennials to emerge, but once they do - they grow fast! Tropical Hibiscus can be pruned in the late winter or early spring. There is usually no need to deadhead these plants, but Perennial Hibiscus can have ornamental seed pods that look great as winter interest, but their seeds in some situations can come up in the spring, so you can deadhead them in the fall if desired.
