Abstract
A new and distinct cultivar of winter-hardy, herbaceous, perennial, hybrid Hibiscus plant named Cherry Choco Latte’ comprising a compact slightly spreading habit of multiple, well-branched, basal stems having flowers over a long season with near white petals having sharply contrasting magenta veins and large deep red eye. The heavy substance petals have a fold on the leading edge and are slightly ruffled at the apex giving the flower the ability to withstand harsh winds and rains. The three to five-lobed, deeply-dissected foliage is mahogany colored when young or when exposed to high light intensity and becomes dark green with purple mahogany blushing when mature.
