Noteworthy Characteristics
Snow Queen is a unique tropical Hibiscus with brilliantly variegated green and white leaves splashed with some pink. Vibrant red flowers shaped like a pinwheel contrast wonderfully against the backdrop of bright foliage. Excellent for containers or beds.
Uses
Where hardy outdoors, Snow Queen Tropical Hibiscus is useful as an eyecaqtching specimen shrub or small tree to highlight entryways, as a colorful hedge, espalier to cover bare walls such as the spaces between windows, and makes for an exceptionally nice container plant.
