The Perennial Hibiscus that we enjoy today were all bred using genetics from our US native species: Hibiscus moscheutos, H. For detailed instructions on growing Hardy Hibiscus please see our Growing Guide. You can also use them as the center piece for large container gardens, in bog gardens, at the edges of ponds, or in any other sunny and consistently moist site. The huge flowers and clump forming habit of the 'Hardy Hibiscus' make them excellent for adding bold summer color to the perennial garden and landscape.
