Tropical Hibiscus

Hibiscus is a huge genus of more than 200 species, practically all native to tropical areas. The plants produce big bright flowers that appear endlessly starting in high summer. Give them moist, well-drained soil and plenty of heat and sun. If you're the type who goes for minuscule flowers, then this is not a genus for you. While the Hibiscus genus includes a diverse bunch of annuals, perennials, and shrubs, both tender and hardy, here we have gathered the tropical varieties that are annuals for us at the farm.
