Hibiscus 'Berry Awesome' (Summerific collection)
Common name: Rose mallow 'Berry Awesome'
Huge 8" lavender-pink with red-eye blooms in mid-summer and lasts for weeks.
The ruffled lavender blooms are sure to make a statement in the garden.
The foliage is dark green in color and adds a nice contrast with the flowers.
It is slow to emerge in spring so be patient. It may not pop out of the ground until June.
Pinch the shoots of young plants in early summer to encourage branching and more flower stalks to form.
Attracts butterflies! Deer resistant.
