Landscape Notes: Cranberry Crush Hibiscus is a naturally compact selection that can be used in a landscape area or in containers. It produces 7-8 inch, deep scarlet red flowers all over the plant. The foliage is a rounded clump of deep green, dense, leathery, maple-like leaves.
Exposure/Culture: Cranberry Crush Hibiscus prefers full sun to partial shade areas in the landscape. It thrives in moist, well drained soils with very little maintenance.
Other Notes: Cranberry Crush Hibiscus will produce a WOW factor in containers or in your landscape. When new shoots in spring reach 10 inches in length, they should be pinched in half. This will increase branching, but cannot be done after the 4th of July.
