Breck's® Exotic Hibiscus Collection
Tropical Looks, Cold-Hardy Performance
Your Garden, Your Oasis
An island getaway in your own backyard...It seems like a daydream, especially in cold, Northern climates, but our Exotic Hibiscus Collection sets a tropical scene all the way up to zone 4, which gets as cold as -30°F! Set up your garden chairs amid the tranquil hues of a beach sunset—lush, dark foliage in beautiful contrast with vibrant reds and purples. Tropical, saucerlike flowers cover the massive plants from top to bottom—a big improvement on old-fashioned, top-heavy varieties. Your exotic hibiscus will bloom again and again from midsummer to early fall and are very easy to care for—just sit back and relax in your very own garden paradise!
This collection includes one each of the following varieties:
- Midnight Marvel Hibiscus: Huge, 8–9" flowers of pure red glow against the richest purple foliage in the genus! Deer tend to avoid this beauty, but it is irresistible to hummingbirds. PP24079.
- Berry Awesome Hibiscus: Deep green, neatly formed foliage is the perfect backdrop to the 7–8", lavender pink, ruffled blooms with red centres. Will bloom again and again during the season.PP27936
