Hibiscus martianus

Hibiscus martianus, the heartleaf rosemallow or heart-leaf hibiscus, is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae, native to Texas and Mexico. In the wild it is found growing in a variety of harsh habitats, including in canyons, on scree and gravel, and in the chaparral.

A perennial 1 to 3 ft tall with spectacular red flowers that attract both butterflies and hummingbirds, it blooms year-round if there is no frost. It is highly heat and drought tolerant and is recommended for xeriscaping.
