Blue Hibiscus
Monterey Bay blue hibiscus is a beautiful, large-flowered selection of this Australian native — producing spectacular 4-5 inch lavender-blue to violet-blue hibiscus flowers almost continuously from spring through fall. The flower color is genuinely outstanding — a rich, saturated blue-violet that is rare among large-flowered shrubs. It forms a large, fast-growing evergreen shrub with slightly rough, lobed leaves. Outstanding for hummingbirds, butterflies, and native bees. Excellent coastal performance.
