Sweeter than a tropical smoothie
Proven Winners
Looking to give your garden a refreshing treat? Try a taste of the tropics with the Hibiscus Summerific® 'Berry Awesome'. This exotic beauty is sweeter than a fruit smoothie with bold raspberry pink blooms surrounding cherry red eyes and lemon yellow anthers. The sizable magenta blooms reach between 7 and 8 inches across and are further heightened by dense, dark green foliage. This rose mallow performs well in full sunlight as well as partially shaded locations and is quite deer resistant. Hummingbirds can't get enough of this impressive native and neither will you.
This is a plant to show off in any sunny garden spot or fine container. It makes a fine poolside planting, a lovely specimen in a small space, and a border standout. Get creative with its tropical look and low-maintenance care this season.
