Hibiscus moscheutos 'Disco Belle White' (Hardy Hibiscus) is a compact and well-branched shrub noted for its huge, snow-white flowers, 9 in. across (22 cm), adorned with overlapping petals and a dramatic ruby-red center. Blooming continuously from mid to late summer, the gigantic flowers display conspicuous, protruding, creamy-white to pale yellow tubes of stamens. Each flower lasts about 1-2 days, but new flowers open each day in rapid succession until late in the season. They contrast nicely against the bold, ovate, toothed leaves.

• Typically grows with an upright habit, up to 24-30 in. tall (60-75 cm) and 18-24 in. wide (45-60 cm).
• Thrives in full sun in average, medium to wet soils. Prefers moist, organically rich soils but is drought tolerant once established. Site in locations protected from wind to minimize the risk of wind burn.
• Fairly pest and disease free. Watch for leaf spots, blights, rusts, canker and Japanese beetles. Deer resistant.
• Plant in shrub borders for dramatic summer blooms. Great flowering shrub along streams or ponds or large containers.
• Cut back stems to approximately 3-4 in. in late autumn (7-10 cm). Plants will benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season.
