Dramatic Beauty for Your Summer Garden
Captivating and bold, the Dark Mystery Hibiscus is distinctly magical. This perennial hibiscus produces incredible, alluring color throughout the summer. Huge ruffled white blooms grow as large as dinner plates, easily measuring 8 to 9” wide. Each one boasts a cherry-red center and dark pink veining, giving the entire flower a pinkish hue.
The contrasting foliage of the Dark Mystery Hibiscus is equally unique. Deep, dark purple leaves are heart-shaped with a leathery texture, offering a stunning display against the tropical flowers. Fast-growing and deer-resistant, it thrives in full to partial sun and prefers moist, well-draining soil.
The pollinator-friendly Dark Mystery Hibiscus is as versatile as it is attractive. Add it as an anchor to borders, in spots that need visual interest, or in large containers to create a focal point. Make a statement and order your Dark Mystery Hibiscus today!
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant your Dark Mystery Hibiscus in an area with moist, well-draining soil that receives full to partial sun (4 to 6 hours of sunlight daily). Once you've selected your location, dig a hole large enough to accommodate your shrub's root ball.
If you're planting in a container, select a pot that's about twice the width of your shrub's shipped container. Use organic soil, place your shrub, and select a sunny spot.
If your Hibiscus is container-planted in a colder climate, just bring it inside in the winter when the temperature starts to drop.
2. Watering: Water your Hibiscus once or twice weekly. If you're not sure when to water, check your shrub's soil about 2 or 3 inches down for dryness.
3. Fertilizing: Use a well-balanced fertilizer in the spring to encourage blooming, and follow label instructions.
4. Pruning: Stems die back in colder climates, so cut them to the ground in late fall or early spring. New growth will emerge each spring. Remove spent flowers to keep the plant looking tidy.
