Sleeping hibiscus are fanciful flowers capable of lulling monsters to sleep. They lose their fragrance after a single use and tend to be used as a material for crafting items related to sleep. The plants are the opposite of the energizing wakerobin breed, which can snap anyone out of the deepest slumber.
