Rose Mallow Live Plant | Hibiscus laevis | Native Pollinator Perennial Starter Plant

Bring bold native beauty to your garden with Rose Mallow, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its large blush-pink to white hibiscus-like flowers, attractive heart-shaped foliage, and exceptional pollinator value. Hibiscus laevis, commonly known as Rose Mallow or Halberd-Leaved Rose Mallow, is a hardy North American native perennial admired for its dramatic summer blooms and adaptability to moist growing conditions. It is an excellent choice for pollinator gardens, rain gardens, pond edges, native landscapes, wet meadows, and naturalized plantings. With proper care, it produces abundant blooms from mid-summer into early fall.

Rose Mallow thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-draining soil. Once established, it tolerates periodic flooding and consistently moist conditions, making it an excellent choice for rain gardens and low-lying areas. Its large five-petaled flowers with deep burgundy centers attract hummingbirds, butterflies, native bees, and other beneficial pollinators throughout the blooming season. The lush foliage and upright growth habit create a striking focal point in the landscape while supporting local wildlife.
