Description

Butterfly Tropical Hibiscus is a radiant, sun-loving variety that brings a burst of pure, cheerful color to the garden. Its large, single-form flowers are a clear, bright butter-yellow, resembling giant, sunlit butterflies perched among the glossy green leaves. The prominent, red-tipped staminal column adds a striking contrast. A prolific bloomer from spring to fall, this evergreen shrub creates a luminous and uplifting display, perfect for brightening borders, creating a vibrant hedge, or adding a sunny focal point to a patio container.

Faqs

Q: Do the yellow flowers fade in intense sun?
A: The color is generally stable. However, in extremely hot, intense afternoon sun, the edges of the petals may show slight bleaching or white scald. Providing some afternoon shade in the hottest inland areas can help preserve the perfect yellow color.

Q: How do I encourage more blooms?
A: Follow the standard hibiscus care: full sun, consistent moisture, and regular feeding. Pinching back the tips of young stems in early spring can encourage bushier growth and more flowering points. Always remove spent flowers (deadhead) to encourage new buds to form.
