[[File:Hibiscus Hibiscuc tiliaceus 2(Sitriya).JPG|thumb|right|''Aloe Vera'']]
'''Beach hibiscus''' is an evergreen shrub or small tree with low, spreading branches, growing 3 - 10 metres tall. A true multi-purpose tree, it is considered to be one of the most useful trees in the Pacific region. It is commonly gathered from the wild for food, medicine, fibre and timber, is sometimes cultivated and often protected when other trees are cleared from an area. The tree is often cultivated as an ornamental plant and hedge in tropical areas.
