Braided Hibiscus

What is the plant

A braided hibiscus tree is elegant and attractive in any setting. They can be placed poolside, on a patio or flanking a paved pathway to your front door. The large whorled flowers with the prominent stamens tumble out from a canopy of the smaller, deep-green leaves of the hibiscus bush.Growing hibiscus in a container or in a garden requires some care and maintenance. Although they prefer certain conditions, they are hardier than they appear and can thrive with the proper amount of water, sunlight and amended soil.
