Hibiscus moscheutos ‘Luna Rose’ (Hardy Hibiscus) is a compact and well-branched perennial noted for its huge, deep rose pink flowers, 8 in. across (20 cm), adorned with a ruby eye in the center. Blooming continuously from midsummer to early fall, the gigantic flowers are adorned with conspicuous, protruding, yellow stamens. Each flower lasts 1 day, but new flowers open each day in rapid succession until late in the season. They contrast nicely against the foliage of broadly ovate, dark green leaves.
