Plant Features

With its lovely, large blooms and a forgiving care regimen, Summerific® Perfect Storm Hardy Hibiscus will be the star of the show this summer. This new and improved version is more compact, growing just 3 feet high, and adds a refreshing pop of color to a summer garden. The enormous (7-8-inch) blooms are a mix of light pink and white with a deep red eye and sit in stunning contrast to the deep purple, maple-type foliage. Hardy Hibiscus plants thrive in full sun locations with moist-wet, nutrient rich soil. Stems should be cut back in late winter. Note: they are late to break ground in the spring.

Our Hardy Hibiscus Plants are carefully grown without harmful pesticides, ensuring they are a safe and vibrant addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Planting Instructions:

- Best planted in spring or early summer for optimal root development
- Space plants 3-4 feet apart to allow for mature growth and proper air circulation

Soil Preparation:

- Ideal soil pH: 6.0-7.5
- Prefers moist, well-drained soil; thrives in rich, organic soil but tolerates average conditions

Watering Specifics:

- Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist
- Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and maintain even soil temperature

Fertilizer Type:

- Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to encourage vigorous growth and flowering
- Feed again in mid-summer to support continuous blooming

Pruning and Training:

- Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged stems
- Cut back to the ground in late fall after the plant has gone dormant to encourage fresh growth next spring

Additional Pest Management:

- Hardy Hibiscus is generally pest-resistant but may attract aphids or Japanese beetles; monitor and treat if necessary
- Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases

Blooming Indicators:

- Blooms from mid-summer to early fall with large, showy flowers in shades of red, pink, white, or purple

Temperature Tolerance:

- Hardy in USDA zones 4-9, tolerates both heat and cold, but may need protection in colder regions

Companion Plants for Hardy Hibiscus:

- Echinacea: Complements Hibiscus with its bright, daisy-like blooms
- Achillea: Pairs beautifully with Hibiscus’ large flowers for a striking contrast
- Rudbeckia: Adds bright yellow blooms that enhance the bold colors of Hibiscus
- Lavender: Provides a fragrant, low-growing companion that complements Hibiscus blooms
- Coreopsis: Offers a continuous display of yellow flowers that pairs well with Hibiscus

It came in as a beautiful healthy plant. I have it planted and waiting on it to bloom.

From Kathy | July 30, 2024

Rose Mallow, Swamp Rose Mallow, Perennial Hibiscus - Excellent

Outstanding packaging and very health, ready-to-plant, Hibiscus. It was in the ground and watered 10 minutes after arrival.

From Greg | July 24, 2024

Not very big but healthy

The plant was on a smaller size but after a week in the ground, it doubled in size and looks very promising. Thanks again, Grow Joy!

Hardy hibiscuses

These are truly hardy hibiscuses! They came packaged well and were easy to plant. Best of all, I did not think we would get any blooms from them this year, but we have from all of the ones we ordered! What a gorgeous surprise!

perfect storm summerific hibiscus

really pleased with 3 hibiscus I ordered in Nov. 2020 for the spring of 2021 , these were much larger than I expected and the one I planted immediately had produced two large blooms 8 days after it was planted

Stunningly Beautiful

The Hardy Hibiscus arrived well packaged , larger than expected. and very healthy The plants already have saucer sized flowers and are amazing. I never purchased from this company, but would do it again in a heartbeat Very unique flower choices, that you simply can't find in our local nursery or box stores Grow Joy will definitely be top of my list Pk

Summerific Perfect Storm Hardy Hibiscus Plant

I will be looking forward to seeing them bloom next year

From Vicky | August 16, 2021

Arrived Safe and is now Thriving!

The hibiscus was packaged well, so there was very little, if any, damage to it. I immediately repotted it. Initially, it did lose a couple of small leaves, probably due to shipping shock. But, within less than a week after I repotted it, I could see new growth. It is now thriving and I can't wait until it begins to bloom.

From Linda | June 23, 2021

Beautiful plants

Plants came in on time, and very well protected in the package. I kept them downstairs under a grow light for 6 days before I felt it was safe to put them in the ground because of Hurricane Barry. They are in the ground now and doing great. I will order from you again.

From Randy | July 22, 2019

Great!

Plants arrived nicely packed and healthy. I will purchase again from this company

Hardy Hibiscus

Hibiscus are my passion and this product is great,service is great and the people are great.Thank you so much.

From anonymous | September 30, 2018

Robust but non-flowering

These babies arrived very healthy and sturdy. I planted them in my garden, and while they grew wonderfully, none has bloomed since spring. All the other hibiscus from GrowJoy have bloomed. I'll give them another year to become well-seasoned with hopes of seeing their stormy mallow blossoms.

From Michael | September 29, 2018

nice big plant

I was expecting a small cutting but this was a Nice size well rooted plant.It shipped the day after I ordered and was very well packaged.

From susan | September 07, 2018

So Far So Good

All plants arrived in good condition and seem to be doing okay, so far. I may or may not see blooms this year. Looking forward to seeing these plants grow.

From Stephanie | August 16, 2018

Healthy plants ..what more could you want

I just received my hibiscus this last week and was very pleased with how well they were packed, the healthy looking root system and how nicely they have held up after transplanting. Only time will tell how well they grow...but it will be my fault if they do not prosper.
