Hibiscus

In the Hibiscus Genus there is a huge number of individuals. However, not very many of them are hardy enough to survive our Winters.

But, Hibiscus syriacus, given a sheltered and sunny position will put on a good show in a favourable season.

… forming a decent sized shrub in the process.

This one is ‘Blue Bird’

… and this one ‘Woodbridge’.

My last offering is of ‘Red Heart’. Many more are out there for you to choose, and providing you follow the guidance, you’re in with a chance of seeing a beautiful show in late summer, July to October.
