Notes
'Valentine's Crush' aloalo (Hibiscus 'Valentine's Crush') 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 blooms from early to late summer and draws butterflies and bees. It grows about 47 to 59 inches tall and 35 to 47 inches wide, so give it room. Deer rarely make it their first choice.
