Hibiscus x Summerific® 'Cookies and Cream' (Rose Mallow)

Summerific® 'Cookies and Cream' is a hybrid Hibiscus cultivar in the Summerific® line of compact, showy Hibiscus that grows to about 30-36" tall and about 4' wide with a compact, rounded, bushy habit. Noted for its attractive, contrasting flowers and foliage, 'Cookies and Cream' produces striking pure white flowers with a creamy yellow center from mid summer to early fall. Creamy blooms are made even more striking by the cultivar's incredible matte purple-black mature foliage that contrasts perfectly.

A relatively squat choice for the home garden, this cultivar is an excellent choice for filling out smaller garden spaces as well as in wetland border plantings, rain gardens, or specimen plantings. Although typically native to swamps, many hibiscus cultivars will also do very well in the home garden if kept consistently moist. For best performance, be sure to provide your 'Cookies and Cream' hibiscus with part shade to full sun; this cultivar is additionally not at all picky about soil consistency or quality.
