From the shadows emerges 'Dark Angel', a tropical hibiscus of haunting beauty. This 2008 Black hybrid offers some of the darkest, most mysterious flowers—near-black with a velvety texture.

The single flowers are 4-5 inches wide, a profound, velvety dark maroon that appears black in anything but bright sun. The eye is even darker, almost absorbing light. The staminal column is dark red. The plant has a somewhat open, graceful habit.
