Summerific® Cookies and Cream Hibiscus

Hibiscus 'Cookies and Cream'

Cookies and Cream Hibiscus is a vigorous woody  perennial with a mounding habit and hardy upright stems and lobed matte black-green foliage with hairy undersides.  The huge, lightly ruffled creamy white flowers bloom throughout summer into fall attracting  butterflies.  Best bloom in full sun and moist well-drained soils.  The Summerific series blooms all long the stems instead of just at the stem ends like most older hibiscus varieties.  

MAINTENANCE NEEDS:   Low maintenance.  Few problems if watered regularly and deeply with plenty of air circulation. Potential issues include canker, rust, leaf spot, and occasional insects.  Japanese beetles can cause severe leaf damage if left unchecked. Leaf scorch will happen if soils dry out

LANDSCAPE USES:  Accents or Group Plantings,  Borders,  Woodland Gardens,  Naturalized Areas,  Ponds and Streams, Hedges, and Containers.

COMPANION PLANTS:   Butterfly Bush,  Black-eyed Susan,  Sneezeweed
