Talipariti hamabo, commonly known as Hamabo Hibiscus, is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to coastal regions and estuarine margins in East Asia, particularly Japan. It typically grows up to 15 feet tall with a similar spread, featuring a rounded canopy of broad, heart-shaped leaves. The Hamabo Hibiscus is particularly noted for its pale yellow flowers with a prominent dark red center, which bloom in the summer and are moderately showy. The flowers are followed by capsule-like fruits that may add additional interest in the landscape.

The Hamabo Hibiscus is valued for its salt tolerance and is often utilized in coastal landscaping where other plants may struggle. It is also appreciated for its ornamental flowers and can be used as a specimen plant or integrated into mixed borders. This species thrives in full sun and requires moist, well-drained soils. While it is generally easy to maintain, it may require protection from strong winds due to its coastal habitat. Gardeners should be aware that it can suffer from root rot if drainage is poor.CC BY-SA 4.0
