Peppermint Schnapps Hibiscus

Posted by
Steven (Chicagoland, United States) on 10 September 2020 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

A tall series, the Peppermint Schnapps Hibiscus forms bushy upright mounds of dark green maple-shaped leaves. Huge saucer-shaped flowers appear in mid summer and continue until frost. This selection has big blooms of rose-pink with a red eye. Plants prefer evenly moist soil and sunny conditions. Stems die back completely to the ground in winter, but new growth is slow to appear in spring.

beautiful red and white bloom. I think the one green leaf, casually draped over the top is a nice feature that adds a natural feeling.
