Perennial Hibiscuses are guaranteed to be the stars of any garden bed with their oversized and dramatic flowers. Angel Eyes Hibiscus is a beauty that does not fail to impress. This early bloomer has 8-inch flowers with ombre coloring that starts with a deep raspberry eye and ends with the palest pink edging. Angel Eyes is a hybrid Hibiscus that is both cold hardy in USDA zone 4a and heat tolerant in zone 9.
Hummingbirds, butterflies, and native bees are all attracted to the nectar of the large single-petal flowers. Angel Eyes is more tolerant of both dry and wet soils and could be a great addition to the outer zones of a rain garden or the centerpiece of an informal cottage garden. Display a container of Angel Eyes on a deck or patio to lend a laid-back tropical feel.
Angel Eyes Hibiscus Care
Angel Eyes needs acidic to neutral soil and full sun exposure. Well-draining soil that stays consistently moist helps Hibiscus form buds non-stop through the growing season. All soils are acceptable as long as they drain well year-round. Mulching with organic materials like compost or arborist chips will help the soil retain moisture while keeping the roots cool during hot weather.
Perennial Hibiscus is notoriously late to emerge in the spring and may not show any growth until June in some areas. Pinch back the branches to promote a bushy shape, but leave the shrub alone after July 4th to allow flower buds to form. Deadhead as the flowers fade to keep the overall appearance tidy and healthy.
In areas that receive heavy winter snow, cut back all the spent growth to within 6 inches of the ground after the first hard frost. Mulching with shredded leaves, straw, or pine straw helps to insulate and protect the crown. In mild growing zones, you can leave the top growth for wildlife, and cut back the plant early in the spring as the new green shoots emerge.
Angel Eyes Hibiscus Spacing
Angel Eyes reaches 5 feet high and wide and makes a dramatic standalone specimen for the middle or back of a garden bed. Allow at least 2 feet of space when planting other perennials near this dramatic beauty. When planting multiple Hibiscuses in the garden, space plants 60 inches apart to ensure plenty of air circulation. Hibiscus blooms best when the plants are slightly root-bound, so be sure to use a container that is only 2-3 inches larger than the root ball.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
