Also known as: Chinese Hibiscus, Tropical Hibiscus, China Rose

Native to the warm, tropical regions of Asia and the Pacific Islands, Hibiscus Orange brings pure sunset energy to any outdoor space. Its large, ruffled, trumpet-shaped blooms can reach up to 10 inches wide, and while each flower lasts just a day, the plant constantly produces new buds — keeping the color show going from late spring all the way into fall. Its vivid orange blooms are especially attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds, making it a lively addition to any garden. A true tropical showstopper, valued for centuries across cultures for its beauty.

plant tips

water
Keep soil consistently moist, fertile, and well-drained, watering when the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out. Reduce watering slightly in cooler months.
light
Thrives in bright light with 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily for the best blooms.
zone
9 and above.
size
Grows 4 to 10 ft. tall and 5 to 8 ft. wide in the landscape, staying more compact in containers.

care

Plant in well-draining, fertile, slightly acidic soil and water regularly to keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Use a balanced fertilizer rather than a high-phosphorus bloom booster, which can cause yellowing and reduced flowering. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote healthy new growth.
