The key difference is mature size, which is 4' tall x 4' wide, compared to 5' tall x 5' wide for its parent. The stalks are clothed with dark purple foliage, and adorned, starting for us in late June (NC), with a dense show of giant 9\" wide, rich pink flowers, each highlighted by dramatic red veining and a large red eye zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eHardy hibiscus are a very low maintenance perennials, provided they are growing in the proper conditions. When the plants go dormant in winter, the stalks remain upright and sturdy. We prefer to leave them to give birds a place to perch. The structure also helps the garden remain much more interesting in winter than a flat carpet of brown mulch.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eHibiscus sawfly is the #1 pest of most hibiscus, causing skeletonized leaves.
