Hollywood™ Hibiscus
Whether it’s adding lush color to a tropical landscape or brightening a balcony, each Hollywood™ Hibiscus showcases vivid, large, fancy blooms with rich color, while also possessing exceptional disease and pest resistance. There are more than two dozen plants in the collection, including Gold Digger, pictured here.
“I saw an opportunity in the marketplace to combine the exotic flowers of the hobbyist-style hibiscus with the attractive habit, disease resistance and bud count of the commodity hibiscus on the market,” says Jim Berry, co-owner of J. Berry Nursery and co-developer of the Hollywood™ Hibiscus line. “After years of breeding, we have achieved an extremely vibrant collection. The Hollywood™ Hibiscus plants showcase the best traits of both lines: fancy, long-lasting, exotic flowers, outstanding bud and bloom count, superior shrub qualities and excellent disease resistance.”

- High bud and bloom counts
