Hibiscus rosa-sinensis - ENID LEWIS - China Rose

Hibiscus rosa-sinensis 'Enid Lewis' is a compact evergreen shrub renowned for its charming, semi-double flamingo pink flowers, each adorned with a subtle biscuit-coloured edge and reverse. The blooms, measuring approximately 12.5 to 15 cm in diameter, grace the plant throughout most of the year, adding a delicate touch to gardens and landscapes. With its modest size, reaching about 60 cm to 1 m in height and 30 to 60 cm in width, 'Enid Lewis' is well-suited for garden beds, borders, and container planting, making it a versatile choice for various garden settings.

To thrive in Perth's climate, plant 'Enid Lewis' in a location that receives full sun to part shade, ensuring protection from hot winds. It prefers light, free-draining soil and benefits from regular watering, especially during dry periods, to maintain consistent moisture levels. Applying a balanced fertiliser during the growing season will promote healthy growth and abundant flowering. Pruning after the main flowering period helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth. With proper care, 'Enid Lewis' will reward gardeners with its delightful blooms and compact form, enhancing the beauty of any garden space.
