Product Description

Hibiscus syriacus 'MINDOUR 1'

FEATURES

The French Cabaret Red Hibiscus is truly unique in its form. Dark pink to light red blooms are far from the typical hibiscus form, and actually bloom similar to roses or peonies. These will grow nicely upright, and can make a nice cut flower in cooler months. This steady bloomer will make a lovely addition to any border landscape, thriving in the sun. This perennial grows upright in nature. It prefers an average amount of water. Once it starts blooming, it doesn’t stop until cold weather kicks in. This hardy hibiscus will come back year after year, providing long stems littered with clustered blooms.  For eight weeks in summer, French Cabaret Red has clusters of three to five richly saturated red double flowers that resemble carnations. Deep red flower buds open to 2” diameter pompom flowers.
