‘Midnight Marvel’ is a hardy Hibiscus hybrid with large scarlet-red flowers and deep purple foliage. The compact, heavily branched plant blooms from midsummer into early fall, making it a strong late-season accent.
## Garden Use
Set it in full sun or part shade in a garden with moist, well-drained soil. Walters Gardens lists mature plants near 4 feet tall and 4.5 feet wide and rates the selection for USDA zones 4–9. The breeder describes long-lasting summer flowers, dark purple foliage and a naturally compact habit; the plant patent records scarlet-red flowers with a darker eye and an extended summer display.

## Maintenance
Keep moisture steady through active growth. This hardy hibiscus emerges late in spring, then grows quickly; wait for new shoots before cutting old stems back. Remove spent flowers for a tidier plant.
