Hibiscus paramutabilis x syriacus 'Tosca'

Hibiscus

Plant Type:

DECIDUOUS SHRUBS

Hibiscus paramutabilis x syriacus ‘Tosca’ – 'Tosca' has a fabulous display of deep pink-purple flowers with a carmine eye over many weeks in summer. As with ‘Lohengrin’ the foliage of ‘Tosca’ is relatively large as compared to H. syriacus, attractive and satiny dark green sometimes turning a nice yellow in autumn. This is another worthy Jim Snyder hybrid. Site ‘Tosca’ in plenty of sun planted in fertile soil. In the north spring planting is strongly advised. Cutting grown.
