Description
Often small plants have dainty flowers. They are sweet to look at and draw you in close. But you'll want to look at the fantastic Luna™ Rose Hardy Hibiscus (Hibiscus moscheutos 'Luna Rose') because it is not that plant. Luna Rose is a compact plant, but it has massive flowers that you can see from a mile away. They can grow up to the size of dinner plates!
The color of Luna™ Rose is a deep, rose-pink, and is eye-catching on its own, but if you look closer at the ruffled, overlapping petals and the sheer size you will be forever hooked! The pollinators and Hummingbirds will be equally dazzled all summer and fall!
A member of the native and easy-to-care-for mallow family, Luna™ Rose Hardy Hibiscus will be a great addition to your garden. Hardy throughout USDA growing zones 4 to 9, these compact hardy perennials grow 2-3 feet in height and width once established, growing from the roots to full size fast during the growing season!
Planting and Application:
The compact branch structure makes this superstar an incredible choice to place in large outdoor planters. Place them where you need an eye-catching focal point. You aren't limited by small yards or land ownership either! Keep Hardy Hibiscus in containers on your balcony to rocket your apartment life into a new dimension!
Its smaller stature is perfect for filling in those holes in your perennial border or foundation planting. You'll want to plant it where it can be seen and enjoyed, for sure! Create brilliant edging and facer plants all growing season with these easy-to-grow perennial plants!
The glorious red blooms partner well with just about any other flower color! Put them in a subtropical pool deck with hot orange and pink blooms. Add them for a deliciously brilliant pop of color in a Cottage Garden or Pollinator Garden. Luna Rose emboldens pastels and jewel-toned plants alike in the mixed perennial border.
Rain Gardens are another chance to make the most of the power of these plants due to their tolerance of moist soil. Use several in a mass planting on the berm to help control erosion and filter water runoff. Coastal gardeners won't need to worry either, and these salt-tolerant perennials thrive along salted streets or sidewalks too!
- Big Rose-Red Satellites
- Green Leaves With Toothy Margins
- Huge Nectar Resources For Pollinators & Hummingbirds
- Long-Lasting Blooms - Summer to Fall
- Low Hedges, Compact Container & Landscape Plants & Bright Color
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Provide full sun or partial shade for your Hardy Hibiscus because these perennials flower better with more sun. Plant them in well-drained soil that quickly dries out after rainfall. Their adaptability to occasionally wet and dry soils is incredible, but they do best with consistent watering and will keep your plant stress-free. Apply a 3-4 inch layer of mulch over the top of the roots, pulling them back away from the roots.
As flowers are done, remove them for a more manicured look, then in early spring, trim down all the stems to the ground. Watch for the new growth to come up from the roots. Please be patient, as they are one of the last plants to start growing in spring.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade
- Widely Adaptable Moisture Needs
- Well-Drained Soil
- Deadhead After Flowers Fade
- Dies To The Ground Each Winter - Prune Early Spring
- Carefree Perennial - Cold-Hardy & Heat-Tolerant

I ordered 2 Luna Rose quart size plants and they arrived in great condition! Upon arrival I planted them in the ground and they have grown into beautiful plants! They just started flowering and the bright pink flowers are gorgeous!! Thank you! Buy the hardy hibiscus they are stunning plants… and they come back every year. : )
Hardy hibiscus have a way of rewarding patience, and it sounds like yours are doing exactly what they should, settling in and putting on a real show. Those bright pink blooms on Luna Rose are hard to miss once they get going. Thanks for the encouragement to others about the perennial habit. That part really does make them special.
The plan grows not that fast but the flowers are beautiful and we love it 😍
Hardy hibiscus does take its time getting established, so that slower start is completely normal, and the payoff once those blooms open is hard to beat. Glad the flowers are living up to expectations for you, Min. Thanks for sharing your experience with the Luna Rose!
Received a healthy little plant. No blooms yet. Very young yet. Hope it does well
Hardy hibiscus can be slow to settle in that first season, putting most of their energy into roots before they show off those big blooms. Sounds like yours is off to a solid start, and once it gets established you should see it take off. Thanks for sharing the early update, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions along the way.
My Luna Rose Hardy Hibiscus arrived healthy. I planted in a lage pot and placed on my sunny patio where it continues to grow. She has no blooms yet but am looking forward to them. Have other plants out there for color now.
Hardy hibiscus can take a little time to settle in before putting energy into blooms, so it sounds like yours is right on track with good growth already underway. A sunny patio is a great spot for it, and once it decides to flower you will not be disappointed. Luna Rose puts on quite a show. Thanks for sharing the update, Mary.
She seams to be growing fine, thanks
Hardy hibiscus can take their time getting established, so it is great to hear yours is settling in and putting on growth. These plants tend to really hit their stride once the roots get comfortable, so keep an eye out for those big blooms. Thanks for the update, Emily!
outstanding service, hardy plants
Hardy hibiscus can be slow to wake up in spring, so it's good to hear the plants arrived in solid shape and ready to get established. Thanks for the kind words, Tom. We hope the Luna puts on a great show for you this season.
I email a photo of the barely alive hibiscus you sent. It’s the worst plant I have ever received in the mail. Never ordering from you again, Thanks. No one responded after I sent email with photo
