Hibiscus schizopetalus 'Dancing Lady'

 
Hibiscus schizopetalus 'Dancing Lady'
Purple stems persist after the leaves were touched by a mid-November mild freeze

Family malvaceae
Life cycle perennial
Flowers red

This is a placeholder for now. The plant I purchased was labeled 'Hibiscus seziopetalus', which doesn't exist, and schizopetalus is the closest I can find. But our specimen has dark purple leaves, while I can't find a cultivar of that description online. So I'll see if it survives winter, and re-evaluate if/when it flowers next year.

This plant used to grow in our garden, but it slipped away...
