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

Hibiscus Sunset Yellow is a cheerful tropical flowering plant known for its large, ruffled blooms in bright sunny yellow with a soft golden center. Native to tropical Asia, its vibrant flowers stand out beautifully against glossy green foliage and bring instant warmth to sunny outdoor spaces. Although each flower is short lived, new buds continue opening throughout the warm season for a steady display of color. Hibiscus Sunset Yellow grows best in full sun and warm temperatures and is a beautiful choice for patios, garden beds, tropical landscapes, and outdoor containers. Its nectar rich blooms also attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
