Hibiscus CHIFFON
The varieties of the CHIFFON range with partially petal-shaped flowers of about 10 centimeters in diameter, have a "mousseline de soie" appearance (CHIFFON in English), which gives the plant elegance and lightness.
The wilted flowers don't stay on the plant, they drop off. As early as single flowered Hibiscus, these cultivations with abundant summer flowers are particularly ornamental in the summer.
Vigorous, these Hibiscus, 2 to 3 m high and 1 to 2 m in diameter, are interesting as they keep their branched-out shape. Three varieties: CHINA, LAVENDER and WHITE CHIFFON are distributed by SAPHO.
