As plant taxonomy is in a constant flow and change with new and more advanced scientific methods, several of our tropical Hibiscus species also have changed their name in a taxonomic revision dating back to 2025. Bascially the reinstated genus Sabdariffa now includes all our former Hibiscus species with slightly spiny and/or coarse stems:

Sabdariffa acetosella (syn. Hibiscus acetosella)
Sabdariffa brackenridgei ssp. brackenridgei (syn. Hibiscus brackenridgei ssp. brackenridgei)
Sabdariffa cannabina (syn. Hibiscus cannabinus)
Sabdariffa diversifolia (syn. Hibiscus diversifolius)
Sabdariffa furcellata (syn. Hibiscus furcellatus)
Sabdariffa heterophylla (syn. Hibiscus heterophyllus)
Sabdariffa meraukensis (syn. Hibiscus meraukensis)
Sabdariffa radiata (syn. Hibiscus radiatus)

You find all of the above under their new names in our shop:

With the latest taxonomic revision in 2025 a major name change has taken place in some North American Hibiscus species. What are commonly known as "Swamp Hibiscus" and which had been included in Hibiscus section Muenchhusia, are now a genus of their own with the same name, Muenchhusia. With this revision only 5 species (and one subspecies) are still recognized:

Muenchhusia coccinea (syn. Hibiscus coccineus)
Muenchhusia dasycalyx (syn. Hibiscus dasycalyx)
Muenchhusia grandiflora (syn. Hibiscus grandiflorus)
Muenchhusia laevis (syn. Hibiscus laevis)
Muenchhusia moscheutos ssp. lasiocarpa (syn. Hibiscus moscheutos ssp. lasiocarpos)
Muenchhusia moscheutos ssp. moscheutos (syn. Hibiscus moscheutos ssp. moscheutos)

The former Hibiscus palustris and Hibiscus lasiocarpus var. occidentalis have been sunk into Muenchhusia moscheuta, which is a highly variable species. However, as the above two forms are clearly distinct, we will maintain their names and offer these separately from Muenchhusia moscheuta. All names have now been updated accordingly in our shop:
