Vidals Lanutan (Hibiscus campylosiphon)

Vidals Lanutan (Hibiscus campylosiphon) on the temporary plastic pot for propagation. This is a medium-sized tree (up to 15m tall) endemic to the Philippine Islands. Hibiscus campylosiphon furnishes a moderately hard wood that was used in the manufacture of carriage shafts, musical instruments, boat oars and baseball bats. Rope made from the bast possessed considerable strength, and the bark was woven into hats. 😍🌱🌳




Hibiscus campylosiphon has large red-centered flowers (up to 8cm) that open white in the morning, sometimes turning to pink as the day progresses. 



Planting materials will be soon available at BORIS PRIVATE SANCTUM.
