Notes
'Mocha Moon' aloalo (Hibiscus 'Mocha Moon') is a perennial for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, loamy or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It grows about 35 to 47 inches tall and 59 to 71 inches wide, so give it room. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Coneflower, Stonecrop, and Rosemary.
