Anisodontea capensis
An evergreen subshrub of upright habit, bearing masses of small, hibiscus-like, pink flowers with a darker pink centre from summer into autumn. Often best grown as a conservatory plant, or as a patio plant brought in over the winter, as these plants will not tolerate any frost. If grown under glass, they need to be given as much light as possible.
