HIBISCUS TW Samoa Wind PBR 17CM

DESCRIPTIONS:

Hibiscus Samoa Wind PBR is a gorgeous compact shrub with beautiful, large butterfly attracting pink flowers with dark pink in the centers which bloom from spring through to summer.  The glossy green leaves on this plant is great contrast to the vibrant flowers making it a great addition to your home or garden.  Ideal for pots, containers or planting around a pool as it does not drop its leaves and add a tropical feel.   Prefers full sun areas, well-draining soil and is light frost tolerant.  Lightly prune to encourage dense new growth and apply a general purpose fertiliser during the growing season (spring/summer). Hibiscus TW Samoa Wind will grow to a height and width of 1.2 - 1.8m. 

Note: Edible flowers or foliage should be picked fresh from an area that has not been exposed to any gardening chemicals and wash thoroughly before consumption.  Flowers are often intended only as a garnish,  and should not be eaten in excess.  If you are unsure whether a flower or foliage is edible, do not eat it; instead consult a Botanist or your health provider.
