Hibiscus coccineus Details

Hibiscus coccineus, commonly known as Scarlet Rose Mallow, is grown for its showy flowers which are an elegant shade of red. They are borne during summer and autumn off upright, slender stems that also host fine, dark green leaves. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and 80 cm wide but can be trimmed as necessary. It performs best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, semi-sheltered site. It is tolerant of short periods of dry, coastal environments, and moderate frost. Hibiscus coccineus is commonly included in a mixed planting, added to a tropical garden, or planted around outdoor living areas.
