Pacific Horticulture The Hibiscus Revolution

Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, commonly called Chinese or tropical hibiscus, has the unusual distinction of being a “manmade” plant. Although the genus Hibiscus includes hundreds of species found in tropical and temperate climates, most bear little or no resemblance to cultivated forms of H. rosa-sinensis, the most popular plant in the genus. The flowering plants we admire and grow today are the result of hybridization efforts by many people over the course of several centuries and in widely disparate geographical areas. Within just the last decade, new and exciting breeding work has begun to transform these lanky landscape plants into sturdy, compact, garden shrubs with sensational flowers.
