Luna™ White Hibiscus

'Luna™ White' Hardy Hibiscus is a compact, robust shrub with abundant snow-white flowers that cover the plant from mid-summer to mid-fall. The 8" wide flowers have scarlet red centers from which clusters of white stamens shine. Flowers last 1-2 days but are rapidly replaced by new flowers each day. Luna White needs a full sun location in average well-drained soil where it can be kept moist until well established. Once established, it is a drought-tolerant shrub. Attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds, this heat-loving plant is a great addition along a sunny border or patio, in a container, or small space where its flowers can be appreciated. Fertilizing during the growing season is recommended. Hardy in zones 5-9, the stems will die back completely in the winter, and a thick covering of mulch is recommended for colder zones. Old stems may be pruned back after winter. Hibiscus is slow to grow in the spring, so be patient and you'll be rewarded! USPPP.
