Rose Mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos)
A hummingbird favorite, native Rose Mallow brings the WOW to the garden!
AND it’s a great native alternative to that invasive thug, Rose of Sharon
6” tropical blooms in shades of dusky pinks, whites & sweet raspberry centers in Summer are pollinator favorites June thru late September.
Seed pods are lovely Winter interest & in dried arrangements too but leave most for overwintering birds
