Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of winter-hardy herbaceous perennial Hibiscus hybrid plant named ‘Berry Awesome’ comprising a short compact habit of multiple, well-branched, basal stems producing numerous flowers over a prolonged season having lavender-pink, overlapping petals and a cherry-red lustrous eye. The petals have radial pleating along veins which helps resist strong wind, bright sun and harsh rain conditions. The foliage is dark-green, primarily heavily-dissected and tri-lobed. Foliage is dark-green, purple-tinged with deeply dissected maple-like shape.
