Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'Sport of Sports', H. rosa-sinensis 'Yellow El Capitolio'
The large yellow flowers of this unusual Hibiscus are centered with a deep red star from which emerges a long pistil that ends in a fluff of flower petals like a pom-pom. This is a rare form of the El Capitolio Hibiscus and like its parent it is a vigorous, free flowering plant. The El Capitolio Hibiscus' have the potential to flower throughout the year under good conditions and with enough warmth and sunlight.The large flowers often have a streak of white and may even revert to single Hibiscus flowers during the short days of winter. Their unique form, flower size, vigor, and flower power all make the El Capitolio Hibiscus types some of our favorites for large tropical specimens. They can also be used as formal or informal shrubs for hedging and screens, as tree forms, or even trained into large espalier. Caterpillar host: Gray hairstreak. Item# 10637.
