What is a double hibiscus?
Double Hibiscus is an ornamental plant in the family ibiscus with more than five petals. Other petals give flowers a very full, foamy look that some gardeners can consider as aesthetically pleasant. These plants are grown as ornaments in tropical and subtropical areas around the world. Some also produce products usable in foods such as Hibiscus tea. These tropical Asian natives have since spread around the world and are particularly closely connected to the tropical islands. They can grow to different heights, depending on the species and produce striking aromatic flowers. In the case of double hibiscus, flowers have additional petals arranged around the base five.
