Hibiscus syriacus Magenta Chiffon ('Rwoods5'^PBR) (Chiffon Series)

Genus: Hibiscus
Family: Malvaceae

About this plant

The latest of the new 'Chiffon' hibiscus, this has been bred by Roderick Woods in Norfolk, and it has wonderful fully double, reddish pink flowers, each packed with lots of slightly ruffled petals that create a slightly frilly effect. The flowers appear late in the season, which makes this resilient deciduous shrub perfect for continuing the display in the shrub border well into autumn.

Care Guide

Cultivation

Grows best in neutral to slightly acidic or slightly alkaline, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil. Plant in a warm sheltered position in full sun to encourage flowering. Can also be grown in pots. Feed in spring, with a slow-release, high potash formula, such as rose food, and mulch in autumn to help maintain soil moisture levels and suppress weeds.

Pruning

Very little pruning required, just prune away any broken or dead branches after flowering - pruning group 1.

Propagation

Propagate by softwood cuttings in late spring, by semi-ripe cuttings in summer, or by layering in spring or autumn

Generally pest-free although may occasionally be susceptible to aphids.
