A hardy and unusual hibiscus grown by a friend.........they don't open like normal hibiscus. Anyone know what it is called?
What is my name?
It's in the same family but not really a hibiscus--Malvaviscus arboreus. Commonly called I think Turk's Cap and Sleeping Hibiscus
Ecrane3, thank you!! I thought it looked like a turks' cap too. What a heavy name for a pretty little thing!!
Hummingbirds love it too!
boy do they ever!!!!!!!!
I have that one too but mine is the pendulus variety, the flowers are a bit larger and they hang down.
Definetly Turk's cap. I love the flowers on this.
