ROSE MALLOW  A shorter alternative to H. x ‘Kopper King’ it too boasts the same rich chocolate-purple foliage.  As expected the flowers are large and are white with a dark red-pink eye with a swatch of blush at the tips of each petal.  Many of the Hybrid hibiscus including this one where created using native North American species.  Hibiscus is late to emerge in spring, usually not until soil temperature is around 70°F.
