    HVH: "'Wakanisha' is one of the gorgeous new varieties in our Fascinating Foliage line. The 5-7" flowers are a rich golden brown shot through with white and orange rays that contrast nicely with the bright red eye in the center of the flower. Along with the unique leaves, 'Wakanisha' features a very full and exceptionally attractive bush which it gets from its father 'Crème de Cacao.' Its mother is the classic hibiscus 'Born to be Wild.' Released from HVH in 2011."
