Perennial Hibiscus Luna Mix Flower Seeds - 10 Pack

Impressive Hibiscus Blossoms

These hibiscus blooms, which can grow up to 8 inches across, create a truly stunning display for your garden! The variety Hibiscus Moscheutos Luna Mix features red, white, and pink 6-8 inch blooms with dark green foliage, making it a real showstopper. This perennial plant, grown from seed, is compact and well-branched, perfect for both container plantings and landscape use. The mixed flowers have vibrant red centers (or are entirely red) that give the impression of being painted. Additionally, the blooms boast creamy-white stamens that enhance the flower's beauty and attract pollinators to the garden.

While the large blossoms only last 1-2 days, new blooms quickly take their place. Hibiscus plants thrive in full sun once established, and are tolerant of drought. They may take some time to appear after cold weather, so don't worry if you don't see blooms right away when the sun comes out. Although they do best in full sun, in regions with intense summers, these plants may actually require some shade.

How to Grow

For best results, start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost. It's recommended to scarify the seeds with a knife or soak them in warm water overnight before planting. Sow the seeds into small pots or starter trays using well-drained, sterile potting mix, lightly covering them and keeping the soil moist (but not waterlogged). The seeds may rot if the soil is too wet. Providing warm soil conditions will aid in germination.

Once the seedlings have grown and show several sets of true leaves, they can be transferred to larger pots or a sheltered spot in the garden. These delicate plants should be gradually acclimated to sunlight over a few days.

Hibiscus is a perennial plant that thrives in USDA zones 5-9, with vibrant 6-8 inch blooms in shades of pink, red, rose, and white, accompanied by dark green foliage.

Once established, hardy hibiscus can withstand various environmental conditions, though it prefers regular deep watering.
