Rose Mallow 'Summer in Paradise', Hardy Hibiscus 'Summer in Paradise'
Very floriferous, Hibiscus ‘Summer in Paradise’ (Rose Mallow) is a compact, bushy, herbaceous perennial with extremely large, brilliant cerise red flowers, up to 7-8 in. across (17-20 cm). The eye-catching blossoms open from abundant ruby-red flower buds which cover the plant all the way up the stems, making it bloom for much longer than most Hibiscus. Blooming continuously from midsummer to early fall, each flower lasts about one day and stands out against the foliage of beautiful, maple-like, green leaves adorned with olive green edges. Perfect backdrop or centerpiece for a sunny border. Great for containers too.
