Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'Isobel Beard'
This tall bushy variety is well known world wide but remains of unknown origin as far as the hybridizer goes. The flower is a two day one and as they are quite large and ruffled, like a Spanish dancer's skirt, they tend to hang down from the branches under the weight of the bloom. The last row of the petals is fused to the staminal column and these fan out sideways which makes for a dramatic appearance.
