First Editions® French Cabaret™ Blush Hibiscus

You might think that you know the beautiful hibiscus. You might even consider yourself an aficionado of the tropical flowers and lush foliage. But when you've met the newest star in the hibiscus world, you'll feel like you don't know anything.

First Editions® French Cabaret™ Blush Hibiscus (Hibiscus syriacus 'Mindoub1' PP 27,840) is the first in a series of thickly ruffled double-flowered hibiscus from French breeder Corinne Liquiere at Minier Nursery in France. Trust us - if its pedigree doesn't impress you, then its flowers will.

French Cabaret Blush blooms profusely from July to October with double flowers in large pom-poms that look for all the world like the petticoats of French can-can dancers. The dark pink flower buds open like huge double carnations in a delicate blush pink with shades of white mixed in like masterful paint strokes. As if that weren't enough, the flowers are sterile, which means they produce no seed. What does that mean to you? It means that French Cabaret Blush puts all of its effort into producing tons of amazing flowers for you all season long without spending energy on producing seeds.

Easy to grow in any average soil - even very dry or very alkaline - these hibiscus will change the way you see this wonderful group of shrubs.
