Description
Hibiscus Berry Awesome is a true showstopper that brings a tropical flair to any landscape—without the hassle of a tropical climate! Its enormous, ruffled, lavender‑pink blooms (reaching 7–8 inches across) burst forth along every branch, not just at the tips, creating a stunning, uniform display from mid‑summer into early fall. The contrasting deep, almost midnight‑green foliage provides a polished backdrop that enhances the flowers’ vibrant red centers. Perfect as a focal point in sunny borders or as a standout specimen in mass plantings, this North American native hibiscus thrives in full sun or partial shade and is both deer and pest resistant.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Requires full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sunlight) for optimal flower production.
  • Soil: Prefers moist, well‑drained soil; amend with organic matter for best results.
  • Watering: Maintain consistent moisture—water regularly, but avoid overwatering.
  • Mulching: Apply a 1–2 inch layer of mulch around the base to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature during cooler periods.
  • Pruning: Cut back old stems in early spring (or after the first hard frost) to promote vigorous new growth and remove any dead or damaged material.
  • Spacing: Space plants 4–5 feet apart to allow for full mature spread and proper air circulation.
  • Container Growth: Excels in large containers if given ample space; just ensure the container is large enough to support its mature size.

Bring a splash of tropical beauty and bold color to your Michigan landscape with Hibiscus Berry Awesome—where every bloom is a statement and every day is a celebration of summer!
