Magenta Chiffon® Hibiscus

The Magenta Chiffon® Hardy Hibiscus is a new, break-through variety just packed with vigor and stunning blooms. Huge blossoms like giant powder puffs are 4 inches across, and fully-double, packed with petals in a dome. The color glows from within, a bold yet sophisticated purple-pink. The first blooms appear in early June, continue in profusion throughout the summer, and in warmer zones will still be growing strong in fall. Bred in the cooler climate of England, it is also reliable and long-blooming in the cooler northeast, as well as in traditional areas for this plant in the hot and humid southern states. A big, bold bush, it will soon stand 8 feet all and 6 feet wide, and can grow even bigger in time. So when planting, allow plenty of space for its future development. Great in shrub beds, it is also perfect for a bold flowering hedge. A truly wonderful addition to these very easy plants that transform summer into a season of endless blooms.

• Huge fully-double blooms like giant powder puffs
• Magnificent glowing color of bold purple-pink
• Bred to bloom for months, from early June into the fall
• Top-choice variety for gardeners in cooler zones, where it blooms profusely for months
• Large, vigorous shrub, so allow plenty of space for its full development

Plant your Magenta Chiffon® Hardy Hibiscus in full sun for top results, but a little shade will be tolerated for a couple of hours a day. Plant in any well-drained soil, of any type, but avoid wet soils. Established plants are very drought tolerant, and enjoy lots of heat and humidity too. In long dry spells an occasional deep soak will have a big impact on blooming and growth. Deer don’t eat it, pests and diseases are almost never problems, and a simple spring pruning is all it takes to enjoy this fabulous plant in your own garden.
