Family Malvaceae

The Hibiscus rosa-sinensis on stem is a spectacular ornamental plant, known for its abundant flowering and its large, trumpet-shaped flowers with vibrant colors. Grafted on stem, this hibiscus adopts an elegant and structured silhouette, ideal for terraces, balconies, entrances or as a focal point in a tropical landscape. Offering continuous blooms from spring until the first frost, it is particularly appreciated for its ease of care, its exotic appeal and its ability to attract pollinators. Note that in Quebec, it must be grown in pots and brought indoors during the cold season. Not all perennials and tropical plants are available year-round: please call one of our branches or send us a request by email to check the available inventory.
