Description How to Grow More Info Delivery Reviews

A beautiful flowering shrub for a medium or larger sized garden. This Rose Mallow is filled with large flowers in late summer. Hibiscus syriacus 'Red Heart' has trumpet-shaped white flowers, that have crimson red centres. It has an upright and multi-stemmed form, and is deer resistant. This makes it a great choice for cottage and woodland gardens. It is also well suited to modern city gardens, planted in a garden border, alongside other flowering shrubs. Height & Spread: 2.5m (8').

Culinary note: The flowers can be infused to make a mildly citrus flavoured tea. The petals can be cut and added to fruit salads too. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Grow Hibiscus on rich fertile, reliably moist, well drained soil, in full sun. When growing hibiscus plants in patio containers use a soil based compost, such as John Innes No.3.

Feed and water hibiscus regularly until fully established. Apply a dry mulch such as bark chips to the base if the plant in autumn to protect from winter cold. Prune hibiscus in late spring, removing any stems that have died back or been damaged over winter. Hibiscus are often one of the last shrubs in the garden to break bud, so be patient with plants that are slow to start into growth in spring - they may remain dormant until May!
