Incredibly showy wetland obligate plant. Flowers measure 3-4 inches in diameter. White petals with a deep scarlet center.
Height: 4-6 ft
Sun: full sun to part shade
Soil moisture: moist-wet
Ecology: This plant has a close relationship with the Hibiscus Turret bee, who specializes in collecting the pollen of this plant to feed its young. That means that when this plant is in bloom, the Turret bees will begin provisioning their nests, which can be seen as small burrows made in bare ground.
