Hibiscus (Tropical Hibiscus) & Pavonia
|
Hibiscus and Pavonia are mostly perennial evergreen to rarely deciduous shrubs, few tropical species are growing as annuals. All require a well drained substrate in full sun and plenty of water in summer. Tropical species should be kept drier in a sunny spot in winter at some 15°C to 20°C. Sow flat at a minimum of some 20°C in any rocky or sandy soil, keep pots always in full sun. 10 seeds per package, unless not stated differently. Note on seed availability: All species in section Lilibiscus (e. g. Hibiscus arnottianus, Hibiscus boryanus, Hibiscus fragilis, Hibiscus kokio, etc.) as well as some other woody members (e g. Hibiscus scottii) are much sought after by collectors. However, seed set in most of these is very irregular and thus almost unpredictable. Despite a continued flowering period from spring through early winter, our cultivated plants usually fruit around early summer (May and June) and then again in early autumn (September and October) only. Whereas in full summer heat all developping seed capsules are usually aborted. Thus you have the best chance to get a hold on one of these by occasionally checking our webshop for new arrivals in early summer and early autumn. A note on Hibiscus seeds being offered on several selling platforms: On severall well-known U.S. American, European and Chinese selling platforms you will find thousands and thousands of offers on Hibiscus seeds. But before you throw away your money, keep in mind the following: Firstly, there does not exist any true blue, nor any vivid emerald green, nor any rainbow colored hibiscus. These are all scams. Secondly, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis cultivars will never come 100% true from seeds. If you are lucky enough you will at least receive some hibiscus seeds (and not something else you didn't pay for). However, the color in your plants will never be the one shown on the photo. In the best case your plants will be close, but they will never be identical. And if a seller will tell you the contrary, then do think twice before buying anything from this person. Last but not least, and as a general recommendation: never ever buy anything from any seller who may also offer: blue tomatoes, blue or violet strawberries, blue, pure black or rainbow colored roses, blue or rainbow colored chrysanthemums, rainbow colored grapes, true blue orchids, blue cucumbers, blue sunflowers, blue pumpkins, etc. All these are fakes and you will be scammed. You find more Hibiscus species in this category: Hibiscus (Hardy Mallow) and Hibiscus (Swamp Mallow). U.S. customers only: Hibiscus seeds cannot be shipped to the U.S. |

Hibiscus arnottianus (Arnott's Hibiscus)200 (500)cm, Arnott's Hibiscus (Kokiʻo Kea or Koki'o Keokeo in Hawaiian language) is an evergreen tall shrub native of the Koʻolau mountains on Oʻahu island, Hawaii, USA. It is among the also Hawaiian endemics Hibiscus inmaculatus, Hibiscus punaluuensis and Hibiscus waimae the only slightly fragrant Hibiscus species in its genus. It has dark green, usually slightly glossy leaves and large, slightly fragrant pure white flowers with a long protruding reddish pistil. For any rich, well drained substrate in a partially shaded (summer) to sunny (winter) spot at a minimum of some 15°C. All plants offered as Hibiscus arnottianus and which show slightly rose or yellowish flowers are inevitably hybrids with Hibiscus rosa-sinensis cultivars. The same applies to all white flowering plants with a reddish center - plants from true Hibiscus arnottianus always have a white center. Our plants are unhybridized, true-to-type and self-fertile with pure white flowers and a white center. VIII-XII. |

Hibiscus cooperi 'Naselai Pink'100 (250)cm, Hibiscus cooperi has been reinstated as a species of its own in 2019. At present it is only known from cultivation and supposedly native of the Melanesia region, where it is still grown on several islands. The first recorded specimen probably came from North Sulawesi, Indonesia. It is a low woody evergreen shrub with utmost showy, rose pink flowers with an inner red eye and a distinct white halo in the offered form 'Naselai Pink'.
This form can be traced back to cultivated plants found near the village Naselai, Nakelo, Fiji island in 1965. In the garden trade Hibiscus cooperi is usually mistaken for Hibiscus storckii which is a different species and which is neither in general cultivation nor anywhere available in the garden trade. Additional, there is a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis cultivar, namely 'Cooperi', which is often confused with the species. For any rich, well drained substrate in full sun throughout the year and reduced watering in winter at a minimum of some 20°C. We offer true to type seeds from Hibiscus cooperi 'Naselai Pink'. Seeds from all Hibiscus species in section Lilibiscus (e.g Hibiscus arnottianus, Hibiscus cooperi, Hibiscus denisonii, Hibiscus fragilis, Hibiscus genevii, etc. ) germinate unevenly over a period of several months.

Hibiscus heterophyllus (Queensland Rosella Hibiscus)250 (450)cm, Queensland Rosella Hibiscus is one of the giant perennial Hibiscus species and simply impressive. It is native of New South Wales and Queensland, Australia. Hibiscus heterophyllus has semi-woody prickly stems, irregularly lobed to unlobed leaves covered with short hairs and showy, very large either yellow or pale pink (our seed stock) flowers with a dark red inner eye. For any rich, well drained substrate in a sunny spot throughout the year. In winter carefully water plants and keep them at a minimum of some 15°C. Several vendors (even some in Australia) falsely offer seeds from Hibiscus sabdariffa under the name of Hibiscus heterophyllus. Seed capsules in true Hibiscus heterophyllus never have any reddish tinge, nor are they succulent, but they will change from green to light beige-brown upon maturity. Also, true and almost tree-like Hibiscus heterophyllus exceeds by far the size of its more shrubby cousin Hibiscus sabdariffa. We offer seeds from the true species. VII-IX. |

Hibiscus insularis (Phillip Island Hibiscus)120 (200)cm, Phillip Island Hibiscus is one of the most endangered plant species in the world. Hibiscus insularis was down to just two genetically distinct specimens in habitat on Phillip Island, south of Norfolk Island, 1.400 km offshore eastern Australia. It is a medium tall evergreen shrub with leathery, shiny dark green leaves with crenulate margins and very showy, greenish-yellow flowers turning to pale rose at maturity, and with an reddish violet eye. On adult specimens flowers are set in abundance, yet seed set is extremely erratic despite careful hand pollination. Most plants in cultivation are from cuttings from the last two wild specimens, thus the genetic variation is extremely low in this species, and which may be the cause of a very low seed set. Also, germination in this species in unpredictable and it will take several months to almost an entire year. As a matter of fact, it is probably the most complicated species we have to get going from seeds. Our seeds were collected in September 2023 and are as fresh as they can be. Each single seed is visually inspected and all potentially unviable seeds are discarded. However, we cannot give any guarantee on germination. In the best case you may be able to raise some 1 to 2 seedlings from one seed package, in the worst case there will be no germination at all. So be prepared not to have any success! Sowing is the very same as for other tropical Hibiscus species. In their first year seedlings will look very differently from adult plants. The first leaves will be very narrow and partially lobed, with time plants will develop adult and entire leaves. For any rich, well drained substrate in a partially shaded (summer) to sunny (winter) spot at a minimum of some 20°C. A first time offering and seeds are extremely limited. Seeds are supplied on a first-come-first-served basis, and at present only one package per customer. V-X. |

Hibiscus mabberleyi spec. nov. (Mabberley's Hibiscus)180 (240)cm, Mabberley's Hibiscus is an in 2023 new described species which is extinct in nature. It was supposeldy native to some Mascarene islands. Few specimens are still grown by botanical gardens and very private cultivators, and these plants had been labelled Hibiscus denisonii in the past. There are at least two genetic lines still alive in cultivation, one with pure white and the other with very pale rose flowers (photo), which later fade to almost white as well. The rose flowering form is sometimes confused with Hibiscus x denisonii or Hibiscus storckii, which both are different taxa. All plants sold as Hibiscus storckii are in fact Hibiscus cooperi. Easily grown in any rich, well drained substrate in full sun throughout the year and reduced watering in winter at a minimum of 20°C. True to type seeds are worldwide exclusively available from Rareplants.eu . Seeds from all Hibiscus species in section Lilibiscus (e.g Hibiscus arnottianus, Hibiscus cooperi, Hibiscus denisonii, Hibiscus fragilis, Hibiscus genevii, etc. ) germinate unevenly over a period of several months.

Hibiscus pedunculatus (Dainty Hibiscus)30 (80)cm, Dainty Hibiscus is a semi perennial Hibiscus species from coastal forests in the Cape Province of South Africa. It is a fast growing ornamental plant with prostate to upright hold stems with for the size of the plant rather large, bright pink flowers on very long peduncles. Hibiscus pedunculatus is morphologically undistinguishable from Hibiscus geranioides which is a supposedly native of northern Australia. However, Hibiscus geranioides is an unresolved name, and it most likely represents Hibiscus pedunculatus which may have escaped from cultivation in Australia and became naturalized. For any rich, well drained substrate in a sunny spot. In winter reduce watering and keep plants at a minimum of some 20°C. Our seeds are from correctly identified, true to type, pink flowering Hibiscus pedunculatus. VII-IX. |

Hibiscus saintjohnianus (Orange Haiwaiian Hibiscus)300 (500)cm, Red Hawaiian Hibiscus (syn. Hibiscus kokio ssp. saintjohnianus) or Koki'o ʻula in Hawaiian language is an extremely rare and threatened evergreen tall shrub known from few populations only on the northwestern side of Hawaiian island of Kaua'i, USA. Hibiscus saintjohnianus has dark green, slightly leathery leaves and rich orange to more rarely scarlet-orange or yellow flowers. This species is widely confused with Hibiscus kokio. It differs from Hibiscus kokio in several aspects, apart from the different petals color, the epicalyx bracts are very short in Hibiscus saintjohnianus. For any rich, well drained substrate in a partially shaded (summer) to sunny (winter) spot at a minimum of some 15°C. Our plants are unhybridized, true-to-type and self-fertile. At present (July 2023) there is one seller on Etsy (namely "SeedsNursery") supposedly offering seeds from this species. Don't waste your money. He stole the photo and comments from buyers on his other articles will tell you the rest. He also offers seeds from Hibiscus schizopetalus - another scam. Again, the photo has been stolen and so far only two persons in the world have successfully managed to get Hibiscus schizopetalus to set a couple of seeds. Another supposedly cultivar available as seeds is 'Fiji Island'. Well, again a stolen photo, and above this cultivar is 100% sterile and it will never ever set seeds after self-pollination.

Hibiscus scottii (Scott's Hibiscus)80 (120)cm, Scott's Hibiscus is an utmost desirable, extremely rare and endangered, evergreen small woody shrub from Socotra island, offshore Yemen, where it occurs in open spots in dry forests. It has small glossy dark green leaves and surprisingly large, rich yellow flowers with a small dark red center. For any rich, well drained substrate in full sun throughout the year and reduced watering in winter at a minimum of some 20°C. Hibiscus scottii is one out of five look-alike yellow flowering species which are endemic to Socotra, and which are easily confused: Hibiscus diriffan, Hibiscus macropodus, Hibiscus malacophyllus, Hibiscus quattenensis, and Hibiscus scottii. Socotra hosts even more yellow flowering endemic Hibiscus species (plus several probably introduced African species), yet these are more easily recognizable. Most (if not all) specimens which are labelled Hibiscus diriffan in cultivation are actually Hibiscus scottii. The problem has emerged as the original collection of Hibiscus scottii had been wrongly identified as Hibiscus diriffan, and probably all existing plants in cultivation descend from this single collection. Leaves in Hibiscus scottii are highly variable, they may have an obtuse, orbicular, or elliptical shape, the leaf margins are either entire, serrated or crenulate and the leaf base may be cordate, rounded, or truncate. Even a particular plant may change its leaf shape from a juvenile to an adult stage, and later in its adult stage again depending on cultivation conditions. Thus the leaf shape does not serve to identify plants. The only true distinctive and unique trait in Hibiscus scottii are very short rusty-brown hairs on the calyx and epicalyx, as well as the lower base outside the petals. Our plants are correctly identified and true-to-type. V-IX. |

Hibiscus trionum (Flower-of-an-hour Hibiscus)30 (50)cm, Flower-of-an-hour Hibiscus is a fast growing, strictly annual tropical Hibiscus from central Africa. It produces ornamental, pale yellow flowers with a dark violet-black center in terminal umbels. After flowering and setting seeds plants will inevitably die down. However, even in colder climates Hibiscus trionum will readily self-sow under suitable conditions as seeds are frost resistent. For any well drained soil in full sun. An excellent plant for the rock garden. On the web sometimes Hibiscus 'Amethyst' is offered as an alleged cultivar of Hibiscus trionum. However, it is indistinguishable from the variable nominal form. Additionally, some apparently plant unexperienced vendors offer seeds from Hibiscus trionum under the name of Hibiscus cannabinus 'Amethyst', which itself is a trademarked name for a cultivar of a completely different species. Hibiscus trionum makes terminal, smoothly hairy seed capsules, whereas Hibiscus cannabinus has axillary, quite hard capsules covered with short and bristle hairs. Our seeds are from correctly identified, true to type plants and offered at an all-time low price. VI-IX. |

Hibiscus x denisonii (Denison's Hibiscus)120 (160)cm, Denison's Hibiscus we had on offer in the past as Hibiscus denisonii 'La Orotava'. According to the latest research conducted in 2023 it is now regarded to be an old stabilized polyploid and fully fertile hybrid of probably three species, namely Hibiscus boryanus, Hibiscus fragilis and Hibiscus mabberleyi. The latter is an in 2023 new described species and was formerly included in Hibiscus denisonii. Hibiscus x denisonii is sometimes confused with Hibiscus storckii, which is a different species and which is actually not in cultivation. All plants sold as Hibiscus storckii are in fact Hibiscus cooperi. Hibiscus x denisonii is an evergreen species with glossy dark green, leathery leaves and ornamental, pale rose flowers with or without some more pinkish and bluish shade. If grown under glass petals use to stay more whitish. Easily grown in any rich, well drained substrate in full sun throughout the year and reduced watering in winter at a minimum of 20°C. True to type seeds are worldwide exclusively available from Rareplants.eu . Seeds from all Hibiscus species in section Lilibiscus (e.g Hibiscus arnottianus, Hibiscus cooperi, Hibiscus denisonii, Hibiscus fragilis, Hibiscus genevii, etc. ) germinate unevenly over a period of several months.

Kosteletzkya virginica (Virginia Saltmarsh Mallow)100 (150)cm, Virginia Saltmarsh Mallow is a herbaceous perennial with an erect, widely branching stem with hastate, finely pubescent leaves, and numerous medium sized bright rose flowers in summer. Kosteletzkya virginica is native of marshes and alongside wetlands from southern-east North America to Central America and Cuba. Some authors place Kosteletzkya virginica into Kosteletzkya pentacarpos from the Mediterranean region. Yet due to their extremely disjunct distribution and lack of genetic analysis, we keep this species separately. For any humus rich, well drained, always slightly moist soil or at the edge of a pond or stream in a sunny spot. Our mother plants have been grown from material which originally came from Florida, USA. VI-IX. |
