What are these shrubs/hedge plants?
Hello.
My first post.
These two are growing in the grounds of the hospital where I work.
The first is an hibiscus, I think, and what a beautiful colour.
The second I know not.
Please identify.
Thank you.
BTW I live in a house where my front garden is south facing, and I have an area in front of my dining room window where I’d like to plant a fragrant shrub which would grow to only about a metre high.
I’d like it’s fragrance to waft through the window on sultry summer evenings.
Advice appreciated.
