The South Sea Salad Plant (Abelmoschus manihot) is a tropical perennial valued for its lush foliage and edible leaves, which are tender, flavorful, and highly decorative. This striking plant produces large, deeply lobed green leaves that create an ornamental, hibiscus-like appearance. As it matures, it can reach an impressive height of 4 to 6 feet, forming a soft, upright mound of foliage that adds both texture and visual appeal to gardens and edible landscapes. In warm climates, the plant bears delicate pale yellow hibiscus-style flowers with dark centers, enhancing its beauty and making it equally suited for culinary and ornamental use.
Adaptable and fast-growing, the South Sea Salad Plant thrives in warm, humid environments and performs well in containers, raised beds, or directly in the ground. It prefers consistent moisture and benefits from regular pruning to encourage bushy growth and fresh leaf production. When established in suitable conditions, it provides a continuous harvest of tender leaves throughout the growing season. Whether used as an edible foliage plant or a striking tropical accent, Abelmoschus manihot is a versatile addition to any home garden, offering both beauty and function in a single plant.

Testimonials
Natalie"Came in perfect condition--thank you!"
Matthew"Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."
Nathaniel"This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"
Trisha"Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"
R"This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."
