Cranberry Hibiscus is an unique addition to any garden. It is ideal for food forests and foodscapes. Without intervention, this bush likes to get tall and leggy - Sometimes taller than 6 feet. Pruning can encourage a bushier, fuller appearance. 
 
The leaves are edible raw or used in stir-fry. Seeds can easily be harvested to propagate more. The hibiscus shaped flowers are stunning in the landscape and attract a wide variety of bees.
