Mahogany Splendor Hibiscus
Stand-out foliage, striking texture, and commanding burgundy color make this a remarkable hibiscus to grow. Deeply lobed and serrated leaves grow on bushy plants, towering up to 5 ½’ and spreading up to 3’. Mahogany Splendor brings a sophisticated contrast to any landscape or cut flower arrangement. Also performs exceptionally in containers. Areas with long growing seasons will enjoy large deep-red hibiscus blooms near the end of the season.
