'Midnight Marvel' Hardy Hibiscus
Common Name: Rose Mallow
Midnight Marvel Rose Mallow combines dramatic deep wine-purple foliage with enormous 8–9" scarlet red blooms for a truly breathtaking garden display. The rich, maple-like foliage provides season-long interest and develops its darkest coloration when grown in full sun. Glossy black-red flower buds open to reveal vibrant scarlet blooms that begin in midsummer and continue into early fall.
This hardy hibiscus produces flowers along multiple points on its stems, creating an extended bloom season and a continuous display of color. Reaching approximately 4 feet tall and 4½ feet wide, Midnight Marvel forms a substantial presence in the landscape while maintaining a tidy, well-branched habit. Though it emerges later than many perennials in spring, it grows rapidly once temperatures warm and quickly becomes a standout feature in the garden.
Why it’s a Creekside Champion™:
The striking combination of near-black foliage and massive scarlet blooms creates unmatched contrast and drama in the landscape. Its long bloom season, vigorous growth, and dependable performance make it a true garden showstopper. Bringing a tropical appearance to even the coldest climates, Midnight Marvel delivers season-long interest and spectacular late-season color while attracting pollinators and admiring glances alike. Bold, reliable, and unforgettable, it is a perennial that commands attention year after year.
