Alyogyne huegelii, commonly known as the Lilac Hibiscus or Blue Hibiscus, is an evergreen shrub native to the southwest botanical province of Western Australia.
The plant is fast-growing, reaching up to 2.5 meters tall and wide, and produces large, showy, mauve to deep purple flowers. The flowers resemble those of a hibiscus and typically bloom from winter to summer, with individual flowers often lasting only a single day.
It is a hardy, drought-tolerant plant once established, preferring well-drained soil and a sunny position. This specific hybrid cultivar with deep purple flowers is known as 'Blue Heeler'.
