Grow breathtaking, oversized blooms with Hardy Hibiscus, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its tropical-looking flowers, lush green foliage, and exceptional garden performance. 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 excellent choice for pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, rain gardens, borders, and patio containers. With proper care, it produces spectacular blooms from mid-summer through early fall.

Hardy Hibiscus flourishes in full sun and fertile, consistently moist, well-draining soil. Mature plants may produce stunning flowers measuring 8–12 inches across, creating a dramatic tropical display while remaining cold hardy in many climates. The nectar-rich blossoms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, native bees, and other beneficial pollinators, making this perennial an outstanding addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.

Please Note: This listing is for Hibiscus moscheutos (Hardy Hibiscus/Rose Mallow). Although some online listings refer to it as "Madagascar Hibiscus," Hibiscus moscheutos is native to North America and is botanically different from hibiscus species native to Madagascar.

You will receive one healthy, greenhouse-grown Hardy Hibiscus starter live plant, carefully packaged for safe arrival.
