Hibiscus rosa-sinensis - LANDERSII - China Rose

Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'Landersii' is a charming evergreen shrub that thrives in Perth's climate. This cultivar features small, double blooms approximately 10 cm wide, displaying a rich pinkish-red hue with a slightly darker centre. The plant maintains a bushy habit, typically reaching up to 2 M in height and width, making it suitable for garden beds, informal hedges, or as a standalone specimen. Its glossy, deep green leaves provide an attractive backdrop to the vibrant flowers, which bloom prolifically during the warmer months, particularly from late spring through early autumn (Kambarang to Djeran).

For optimal growth, plant 'Landersii' in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. It prefers fertile, well-drained soils and benefits from regular watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Applying mulch around the base can help retain moisture and protect the roots from temperature extremes. Regular feeding with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season will promote healthy foliage and abundant flowering. Pruning after the main flowering period can help maintain its shape and encourage new growth. With proper care, 'Landersii' can be a delightful addition to Perth gardens, offering year-round greenery and seasonal bursts of colour.
