Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Huge bright cherry pink, 10" wide, widely flaring flowers are born from summer to fall on this beautiful perennial Hibiscus. Pink Flare is a showstopper with its continuous display of massive flowers, excellent vigor, and and pest resistant foliage. This root hardy die-back perennial has a compact 4-6' x 4-6' habit and is tolerant of soil moisture levels ranging from average to wet. The Flare Series Hibiscus were developed near San Antonio so in the the words of Heidi Sheesley they are 'Texas tough' as well as big and beautiful! The Flare series perennial Hibiscus were developed by Sam McFadden and was selected as a Texas Superstar plant in 2010. Like the other Flare series Hibiscus this one tends to be compact as well as sterile and so spends more time flowering throughout summer instead of setting seeds to ripen.
