Hibiscus Summerific® ‘Ballet Slippers’

Product Details

The large 7” blossoms on this Rose Mallow have overlapping, lightly ruffled petals that create a swirling sense of motion. The flowers arrive in multitudes from midsummer to fall, appearing from the top of the stems down to the bottom. The plant’s upright habit and fresh green, serrated leaves contribute to its prima status. Looks positively tropical, but it’s hardy even in zone 4. A Proven Winners® variety. PP 29,896

Hibiscus is a huge genus of more than 200 species, practically all native to tropical areas. If you’re the type who goes for minuscule flowers, then this is not a genus for you. The plants produce big bright flowers that appear endlessly starting in high summer. Give them moist, well-drained soil and plenty of heat and sun. Stems will die down to the ground over winter in colder climates.
