Whether you plant Aphrodite Hardy Hibiscus Standard Tree in a back border, as a privacy screen or in a focal point garden, you'll love what it brings to the landscape. Big, ruffled single blooms of pink are highlighted with a bright red eye. The fast-growing, 3 to 4 feet tall plant is covered in deep green, maple-like foliage that makes a great backdrop for the pretty flowers. Easy to grow and maintain, simply prune Aphrodite to keep its spherical standard form. Aphrodite is drought-tolerant and highly attractive to many types of pollinators. As butterflies, bees and hummingbirds are lured in, they will benefit the entire garden. Aphrodite can be used as a specimen, grown alone or set in a border, for a screen or hedge, or pruned shorter to make a small tree.
