Hardy Hibiscus
Certified Organic Seed
Hibiscus moscheutos
Bring the tropics to your yard.
These beautiful shrubs are hardy to zone 4! In the first year of growth from seed, our plants reached 48" high and had several blooms. In the second year, each plant was absolutely covered in 6" flowers. Starting Hardy Hibiscus from seed can take some time, be patient and expect a few plant losses. You time and effort will be rewarded for year to come.
This lot was produced and processed in the Hudson Valley of New York State on our own certified organic seed farm, Four Fold Farm.
