Hibiscus laevis (Halberdleaf Rosemallow) is a tall, showy perennial nat ive to Texas and much of the eastern U.S., known for its large pink or white blooms with deep maroon centers. Growing up to 6 feet tall, it features sharply lobed, halberd-shaped leaves and upright stems with flowers that open during the day and close at night.
