180 (240)cm, Denison's Hibiscus is an unresolved evergreen species which was supposedly native on the island of Fiji. However, it has never been found in the wild and it does not look similar to any other wild Hibiscus species in section Lilibiscus found on Fiji. Hibiscus denisonii has either pure white or very pale rose flowers, which later fade to almost white. The rose flowering form 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. 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. Keep pots in a warm spot and the soil slightlly moist until germination will occur. VI-X. 5 seeds per package.
