Why some shipping routes differ

Live plants are pickup only June 1–September 30. Plugs and potted plants cannot use our shipping path to AZ, CA, HI, ID, NV, OR, UT, or WA; pickup may remain available. Soil-free bare root plants may ship to those states during March 1–May 31 when all remaining rules pass. Montana plug and potted-plant arrivals must be October 1–May 31.

We choose neem oil and lower-impact plant care instead of routinely drenching our greenhouse with lab-manufactured pesticides. We are exploring a screened growing house that may expand future shipping options.

Bare root arrives dormant

Expect new growth in 10 weeks or more after planting. Until then it can look lifeless, so you won’t be able to tell within 24 hours of arrival whether it will grow.

About the Product

Evening Rose combines hot pink, almost magenta flowers with near-black foliage for strong contrast. The 8-inch blooms have a softly puckered texture and cover the plant from top to bottom.

It grows in a round, dense form about 4 feet tall and 4½ to 5 feet wide, blooming from early August into September. It has earned top marks in public garden trials and makes a bold statement plant for a sunny, moist bed.

What it looks like

A round, dense bush about 48 inches tall and 54 to 60 inches wide of near-black leaves. Flowers are about 8 inches across with a slightly puckered, textured surface, in hot magenta pink. Blooms are spread evenly from the top to the bottom of the plant. At peak the dark mound is covered in large glowing magenta flowers.

Growing it with lavender

Full sun suits it, but its thirst for steady moisture puts it in a watered border, pond edge or rain garden rather than beside lavender.

Care

Give it full sun to bring out the darkest leaf color. It grows in poor to fertile soil but needs consistent moisture; hardy in zones 4-9. It emerges late in spring, so mark its spot, and cut old stems to the ground in late fall or early spring.

Sizes and shipping

Dormant bare-root plant, sold in boxes of 25 per variety (order in multiples of 25). Bare-root plants ship or are picked up March 1–May 31 only. They are soil-free, so they may ship to every state in that window. Dormant plants often show little or no top growth on arrival; plant or heel them in promptly. Hardy hibiscus arrives fully dormant and is one of the last perennials to wake up: expect no new growth until late May or June. That is normal, so plant it, water lightly and be patient.

Shipping note: Emerges late; dormant crowns look lifeless in spring until growth starts in late May or June.

How to grow Evening Rose

Hardy Hibiscus · Hibiscus

Hardy hibiscus (rose mallow) needs full sun, rich soil and plenty of water. It dies to the ground each winter and is one of the very last perennials to wake up in spring.

When it arrives

Your bare-root plant

Arrives as a cluster of thick, tan, carrot-like roots with a woody crown and cut stem stubs; it looks lifeless. Soak 30–60 minutes, plant crown just below soil, water well and be patient: shoots may take until late spring.

Expect new growth in 10 weeks or more after planting. Bare root ships March–May while dormant, with little or no top growth, and it can look lifeless until then. That’s normal. Very late: new shoots often don't appear until late May or June in Michigan, once soil is warm. Don't dig it up. Mark its spot in fall so you don't damage it while you wait.

You won’t be able to tell within 24 hours of arrival whether a dormant plant will grow.

When to plant

Late spring once soil has warmed, through early summer.

How deep

Set the crown, where old stem stubs meet the roots, just below the soil surface with roots spread out.

Spacing

About 3–4 ft apart; mature plants are shrub-sized.

Soil

Loam or silt rich in organic matter · pH 5.5–7.0

Fix-it tip: Mix generous compost into sandy or poor soils to hold moisture. Slightly acidic soil is ideal. It tolerates wet, boggy soil better than drought.

Sun

Full sun (tolerates part sun).

Full sun gives the most flowers and best disease resistance.
