Hibiscus Rubra, or Red Cotton Tree, is a beautiful Australian native hibiscus tree with large rich maroon-green foliage and bright yellow (occasionally coral) flowers.
These trees have a low broad crown, ideal for providing shade, and respond well to trimming to shape. Mulch and water well, prune after flowering and fertilise in spring.
To maintain a neat hedge, prune regularly or leave to grow naturally as a feature tree.
