Hollywood Hibiscus ‘My Valentine’
Plant in fertile, compost-enriched soil with good drainage. Water deeply during hot, dry spells, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering. Prune after flowering to maintain its elegant standard shape and encourage fresh buds. Feed with a high-potash fertilizer in spring and midsummer for maximum flower power. Protect from frost in exposed Cape Town gardens.
The Hollywood Hibiscus series was bred in the United States to combine extra-large blooms with extended flowering seasons, making them some of the most showy hibiscus cultivars available worldwide.
