Hibiscus is a medium-sized, deciduous shrub of upright habit with large, green leaves and attractive, trumpet-shaped, from pure-white to pink, peach, red and violet-blue flowers, often with red to purple centres, and creamy to red staminal columns, blooming from mid-summer to early fall. There are several hundred species, native to tropical and sub-tropical regions. Several species are cultivated as ornamental plants, especially H. syriacus and H. rosa-sinensis. Hibiscus prefers average, organically rich, neutral, medium moisture, well-drained soils, but is adaptable to various types of soil. It thrives in full sun, but it tolerates partial shade. It can withstand heat, humidity, drought, and salt, but needs to be protected from harsh winds. Low maintenance. Hibiscus is an exotic-looking shrub with very attractive flowers and makes a great landscape plant. It is perfect for flower and shrub borders, wall-side borders, informal hedges, or for growing in containers. It is attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Hibiscus flowers are edible and mostly used for making tea.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
