Native across the Gulf Coast Prairies and Marshes, Texas Star Hibiscus (Hibiscus coccineus) is an adaptable deciduous perennial valued for both ornamental appeal and ecosystem support. During Spring and Summer, the plant produces red blooms. Flowering is followed by ornamental capsule that add seasonal interest. It provides essential nectar, shelter, or forage for native wildlife, including Bees, Butterflies, and Hummingbirds.
