Description
Hibiscus 'Flower Tower White' brings a serene, architectural elegance to the garden—its pure white blooms radiating freshness and calm from midsummer to early autumn. Each flower opens like a perfect porcelain plate, luminous against glossy green foliage, and subtly veined with delicate texture. The blooms appear in generous succession, attracting pollinators while lending an air of quiet sophistication to any sunny border or terrace display. Compact in youth yet ambitious in form, a two-year-old Hibiscus 'Flower Tower White' typically reaches around a metre in height, already showing the promise of its statuesque maturity.
Unlike traditional rounded hibiscus varieties, Hibiscus 'Flower Tower White' grows with a graceful, pyramidal silhouette, eventually attaining around 3m tall and a modest 80cm wide. This slender profile makes it a superb choice for narrow borders, courtyard gardens or as a vertical accent in a mixed planting scheme. Its sculptural shape pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, late-flowering perennials, and darker foliage plants that emphasise its luminous white blooms. Elegant, space-savvy, and irresistibly refined, tree mallow 'Flower Tower White' is a modern take on a tropical classic—proof that purity can be every bit as dramatic as colour.

Useful information
-
Soak the Hibiscus 'Flower Tower White' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Tree mallow" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
