Hibiscus grandiflorus, Michx. Perennial herb, tall and stout (3-8 ft.), the terete reddish st. becoming glabrous: lvs. large, 3-lpbed, the lobes ovate-acuminate or ovate- oblong-acuminate, the side ones widely spreading, blunt-toothed or even again lobed: bracteoles linear, 1 in.: fls. very large (6—8 in. across), white or rose, with deeper eye. Ga.. Fla. west, in swamps.—Aside from the large fls. and lobed lvs., this is very like H. moscheutus. It is doubtful whether the true H. grandiflorus is in the trade.
