A little later to bloom than other cultivars, the huge, dinner plate size white to very soft-pink flowers of Dark Mystery begin appearing mid summer and continue nonstop through early fall. Each flower has a dark cherry red eye from which dark pink veining extends through the petals. But where this variety gets its name is from its handsome deep wine-purple foliage, which serves as the perfect backdrop to showcase the flowers. Although the foliage is a little later to emerge in spring than some other types of plants, once it starts emerging the growth is rapid. The large, maple-like leaves are broadly smooth and form a full, billowy look on mounding plants that might reach 5.5 feet tall and equally as wide. A captivating specimen, grouping or hedge in the landscape. Especially nice around patios, pools and around other outdoor sitting and living spaces.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 5 to 5.5 feet tall and equally as wide, the Dark Mystery Hardy Hibiscus makes a bold and beautiful specimen in the landscape or in large containers. Especially impressive in groupings of three or as a colorful hedge. Because it has such colorful and bold foliage and flowers it makes a nice backdrop or centerpiece in flower gardens.
