25 Seeds Hairy-Fruited Hibiscus Hibiscus lasiocarpos Native Wildflower Wetland Rose Mallow

Hairy-Fruited Hibiscus is a native North American wildflower known for its large, showy blooms in shades of white to soft pink with crimson centers, appearing through summer into early autumn. Its distinctive hairy seed capsules follow the flowers, and the plant brings a bold, naturalistic presence to moist gardens, rain gardens, and meadow plantings.

This hibiscus works well as a specimen or grouped in borders, near ponds, streams, or other consistently damp areas, and its nectar-rich flowers draw pollinators through the growing season. It can be grown from seed and, once established, forms a robust perennial that returns each year with tall stems and abundant bloom.
