Hibiscus dasycalyx - NECHES RIVER ROSEMALLOW

No reviews yet
Product Code: HIB-DAS-X
Shipping: Calculated at Checkout
$9.99

A rare and endemic species of hibiscus, this Rosemallow is native to regularly-flooded lowland areas near the Neches, Angelina and Trinity rivers in eastern Texas. Endangered in nature and rare in cultivation, it's a true gem worth saving and protecting in our yards. It is considered a Threatened Species at both the federal and state level, having been designated as such by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 2013. Its current range can be viewed here

Usually grows taller in its natural habitats than when cultivated; the bigger white flowers appear in late summer, and the narrow, ornamental leaves have a shape similar to that of a duck's foot (it's sometimes called narrow-leaf hibiscus). Attracts native bees.

Perfect for moist flower beds, along streams and other bodies of water, and for bigger containers.
