About This Plant

Hibiscus acetosella 'Mahogany Splendor' (African Rose Mallow), 'Mahogany Splendor', is valued in PNW gardens for its character and seasonal interest.

Hardy Hibiscus (H. syriacus / Rose of Sharon) , late summer flowering shrub with showy 4-inch flowers in white, pink, blue, or red. The 'Chiffon' and 'Satin' series are sterile, non-seeding selections.

Full sun suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 5 to 9. Slow to leaf out in spring , be patient. Watch for Japanese beetles and aphids. Generally trouble-free.

For a Pacific Northwest native plant of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Holodiscus discolor (Oceanspray), or Mahonia aquifolium (Tall Oregon Grape) , all support native pollinators and birds.
