This plant, Mexican Turks Cap (Malvaviscus arboreus var. mexicanus) is the star of any late fall garden. The blooms are bigger than the native version, but it is not freeze hardy. In a normal winter, these freeze to the ground and grow to about 5' by the end of the season.
This is a collection of about four plants, that due to last years mild winter, are around 8' tall and covered with blooms.
