Hibiscus Hollywood Playboy (21cm Pot)

Product Description The Hibiscus Hollywood Playboy is a show-stopping tropical evergreen shrub bred for exceptional bud and bloom performance. Known for its massive, dinner-plate-sized ruffled flowers, "Playboy" showcases a fiery blend of electric orange and golden-yellow petals radiating from a deep, velvety red throat. Its rich blossoms are framed by lush, glossy deep-green foliage with neatly serrated margins, delivering a vibrant resort-style tropical aesthetic to gardens and sunny outdoor living areas.

Established in a generous 21cm container, this advanced specimen boasts a naturally dense, compact growth habit and a significantly higher bud count than traditional garden hibiscus varieties. It branches freely from the base without becoming leggy, ensuring an extended, prolific parade of vivid blooms throughout the warm months in sun-drenched garden beds, poolside landscapes, and patio statement planters.

Watering: Water thoroughly and consistently during the warmer months, allowing excess moisture to drain freely. Ensure the soil remains evenly moist without becoming waterlogged.
Feeding: Feed every 3 to 4 weeks during the active spring and summer growing season with a balanced fertiliser high in potassium and trace elements to maximize blossom quality.
Grooming: Remove spent blooms as they finish to maintain a tidy appearance, and prune lightly in spring to shape the canopy and stimulate fresh flowering shoots.
