Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of winter-hardy, herbaceous, perennial, hybrid Hibiscus plant named ‘Angel Eyes’ comprising a rounded mound habit of multiple, well-branched, basal stems producing flowers starting earlier than most cultivars, opening from the bottom to the top of the mound beginning in late July and continuing for at least twelve weeks. Flowers have overlapping petals of near white with shiny deep-red eye and raspberry-red veins projecting into the middle of the petals. The foliage is primarily three-lobed and dark-green-colored. The new plant is useful in the landscape as a specimen or in mass.
