Add spectacular color and tropical flair to your landscape with Hardy Hibiscus, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its enormous blooms, lush green foliage, and long flowering season. 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 stunning 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 measuring 8–12 inches across, creating a dramatic tropical display while remaining winter hardy in many regions. The nectar-rich blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, native bees, and other beneficial pollinators, making this an exceptional addition to wildlife-friendly gardens.

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 distinct from hibiscus species native to Madagascar.

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