Hardy Hibiscus Live Plant | Hibiscus moscheutos | Rose Mallow Starter Plant | Giant Flower Perennial

Create a stunning garden display with Hardy Hibiscus, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its enormous tropical-looking flowers, lush green foliage, and long-lasting summer blooms. Hibiscus moscheutos, commonly known as Hardy Hibiscus, Rose Mallow, or Swamp Rose Mallow, is a hardy perennial in the mallow family (Malvaceae). It is an outstanding choice for pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, rain gardens, borders, and large patio containers. With proper care, it produces spectacular blooms from mid-summer through early fall.

Hardy Hibiscus thrives in full sun and rich, consistently moist, well-draining soil. Mature plants may produce breathtaking flowers up to 8–12 inches across, making them one of the largest blooms of any hardy perennial. Their nectar-rich blossoms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, native bees, and other beneficial pollinators. Although it has a tropical appearance, this cold-hardy perennial dies back in winter and returns each spring in suitable climates.

Please Note: This listing is for Hibiscus moscheutos (Hardy Hibiscus/Rose Mallow). While some online listings refer to it as "Madagascar Hibiscus," Hibiscus moscheutos is actually native to North America and is not the Madagascar hibiscus.
