Tropical Hibiscus 'Gator Magic': Swampy Mystery

From the bayou comes 'Gator Magic', a mysterious and alluring tropical hibiscus hybridized by Carran. This cultivar conjures the deep, murky beauty of its namesake with flowers of an unusual brownish-bronze to copper hue, overlaid with a veil of pink.

Enigmatic Colors

The blooms are single, 4-5 inches wide, exhibiting a complex coloration: a base of metallic bronze-brown suffused with rose-pink, often with a darker, almost black eye. The colors shift dramatically with light angle, revealing hidden depths. The foliage is a deep, glossy green. This is a truly distinctive cultivar for collectors.
