Summerific® All Eyes on Me™ Rose Mallow

Summerific® ‘All Eyes on Me’ combines rounded, dark green foliage with oversized blush-pink flowers whose overlapping petals look softly ruffled as the buds open. The compact 3½-foot mound brightens sunny perennial borders and late-season focal plantings, with flowers held along the stems. [Walters Gardens](https://www.waltersgardens.com/variety.php?ID=HIBAL) identifies the selection, while [Proven Winners](https://c5.provenwinners.com/plants/hibiscus/summerific-all-eyes-me-rose-mallow-hibiscus-hybrid) supplies garden dimensions and care. ## Flowers and form The large, semi-double-looking blooms have rippled petal edges and a reddish eye; the patent description gives a flowering period of at least eight weeks beginning in late July or early August. Mature plants reach about 42 in. tall and wide, forming a rounded mound of dark green leaves. Walters Gardens lists the cultivar in its Summerific® collection; U.S. plant patent PP35674 issued March 5, 2024. ## Site and water Plant in part sun to full sun, in average, moist, well-drained soil. Water through dry spells to support full-sized flowers. This hardy perennial suits a sunny border or focal spot and is also listed for bog-garden conditions. Proven Winners reports USDA zones 4–9 and notes that bees and hummingbirds visit the flowers. ## Maintenance Deadheading can tidy spent blooms but is not needed for continued flowering. Hardy hibiscus emerges late in spring, so wait for new growth before removing old stems. Mulch newly planted specimens for their first winter, cut remaining stems back in spring, and avoid fall trimming.
