Reaching 4-4 ½ feet tall a spreadin gupt o6 feet wide, SUMMERIFIC® 'Glitter Bomb' is one of the tallest hibiscus in the SUMMERIFIC® collection. It thrives in full sun, where both foliage color and flower production are at their best. It prefers moist, well-drained soil and performs especially well in landscapes with consistent moisture, including rain gardens.

Like most hardy hibiscus, it is generally deer and rabbit resistant, though light browsing may occasionally occur.

3 stars just cause 3 were the dry and maybe because of that the soil was all over the plant and box but other wise in decent shape. I just wish i had video the box opening..
