Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'Albo Lacinatus'
Tropical Hibiscus 'Albo Lacinatus'
A genus of hardy and tender annuals, evergreen and deciduous shrubs or small trees. The tender, evergreen species such as H. rosa-sinensis, are popular conservatory or house plants in temperate climates. These plants require winter protection in these cooler regions and can be grown as pot plants. The hardy species such as H. syriacus are suitable for annual or mixed borders. 'Albo Lacinatus' is one of the fastest growing, tallest, and most vigorous of all tropical hibiscus. It makes a beautiful hedge, or screen, growing up to 20 feet tall in about 5 years. Its pink flowers are the first to bloom in the spring and the last to stop blooming in the winter.
