Description
Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' is a vivacious burst of colour just when the garden needs it most. Each fully double, dark pink bloom of Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' is lavishly filled with gently ruffled petals that lend a delightfully frilly texture. The flowers appear late in the season, keeping the garden lively and colourful well into autumn. Set against deep green, lobed leaves, the blooms of Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' stand out brilliantly, bringing warmth and exuberance to borders, mixed plantings, or even large containers on the patio.
As it grows, Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' forms a strong, bushy shrub—resilient, handsome and floriferous from late summer through the cooling days of autumn. Reaching around 2m in height, Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' provides a sturdy framework of interest and colour that feels both generous and refined. This double-flowered rose of Sharon has a natural poise, offering tropical flair without the fuss, and an easy reliability that makes it a joy for gardeners and pollinators alike. If your borders are craving a late-season encore, Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' delivers it with exuberant, rosy grace.

Useful information
-
Soak the Hibiscus 'Magenta Chiffon' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Double rose of Sharon" 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.
