| The Coolies and Cream Hibiscus is a night and day combination of matte black foliage and pure white flowers. 'Cookies and Cream' emerge in late spring, already showing its dark foliage, the perfect backdrop to early season perennials. Like other dark-leaved Hardy Hibiscus, full sun is necessary to bring out the deepest foliage color. In midsummer, slightly cupped 6-7" bright white flowers will appear. Each bloom is absent the typical red eye of Hardy Hibiscus, appearing solid white. The back of each petal has a slight pink blush near the tip. Green calyxes follow the bloom and contrast nicely with the dark foliage. Compared with older varieties of herbaceous Hibiscus, 'Cookies and Cream' is exceptionally compact and sturdy. Despite the smaller habit size, this selection does not lack flowers. Blooms will appear the length of the stem for top-to-bottom flower coverage, causing 'Cookies and Cream' to bloom earlier and more prolonged than traditional varieties. These North American native plants bring massive, tropical-looking flowers to zone 4. Although they emerge later than most perennials in spring, these fast-growing plants can add an inch of new growth daily. They are excellent at brightening up end-of-season gardens. |
