Turk’s Cap Hibiscus — this tall, vertical painting highlights the elongated structure and rich red blooms of this native Alabama species. Unlike most hibiscus, Turk’s cap keeps its petals wrapped, forming a distinctive shape that resembles a Turkish hat. The plant grows tall and can become heavy with blooms, often needing a bit of support to stay upright. It flowers from summer into fall, providing nectar for hummingbirds and pollinators, while birds feed on and disperse its seeds. With its long blooming season and adaptability, Turk’s cap hibiscus makes a standout addition to an Alabama home garden. Don’t collect it from the wild—gather seeds after they ripen, or purchase from a native plant nursery instead.
The stretcher bars for this piece are a little warped, resulting in the piece not laying perfectly flat against the wall on one corner - price reduced.
