{"product_id":"marshmallow-moon-hardy-hibiscus-bare-root-plant","title":"Marshmallow Moon Hardy Hibiscus - Bare Root Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eMarshmallow Moon offers a solid white hardy hibiscus in a well-behaved size. The 6- to 6½-inch pure white flowers have thick petals that stand up better to wind and rain, and buds form along the full stem for a high flower count.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plant grows 3 to 3½ feet tall and about 4 feet wide with dark green leaves, much tidier than older white types. It starts blooming earlier and continues from midsummer into early fall. Use it as a statement plant in a sunny, moist bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tidy, rounded plant 36 to 42 inches tall and about 48 inches wide with dark green leaves. Flowers are 6 to 6½ inches across, saucer-shaped, pure white throughout with thick, substantial petals. Blooms open along the full length of the stems. At peak the dark green mound is covered with crisp, bright white flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull sun suits it, but its thirst for steady moisture puts it in a watered border, pond edge or rain garden rather than beside lavender.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun for the most flowers; part shade is tolerated. It grows in poor to fertile soil but needs consistent moisture and should never dry out for long; hardy in zones 4-9. It is slow to wake up in spring, so mark the spot, and cut the old stems to the ground in late fall or early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hibiscus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tidy, rounded mound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36–42 in tall × 4 ft wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, part sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-July\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-August\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderately resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Great\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDormant 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Emerges late; dormant crowns look lifeless in spring until growth starts in late May or June.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Great Lakes Lavender Farm","offers":[{"title":"Bare Root Plant","offer_id":67776275480872,"sku":"GLLF-PER-582903C4-BR","price":19.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/0736\/9768\/files\/marshmallow-moon-hardy-hibiscus.jpg?v=1790864948","url":"https:\/\/greatlakeslavenderfarm.com\/products\/marshmallow-moon-hardy-hibiscus-bare-root-plant","provider":"Great Lakes Lavender Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
