WHITE CHIFFON
Rose of Sharon
A whole new look for hardy hibiscus! Large single flowers are adorned with a lacy center to create an anemone-like bloom. This bloom-crazy shrub will add charm to the late summer landscape. Hibiscus are reliable summer bloomers that offer the gardener an easy way to bring the tropics to the mainland.
USDA Zone 5-8. Best to maintain 4" of organic mulch in colder climates.
5 to 8 feet by 5 to 6 feet wide, may be pruned to keep it a smaller shrub or
trained into a small patio tree
Best in full sun! This beauty thrives in full sun and loves hot weather.
A versatile plant that can be used as a shrub or as a small tree. When
grown as a shrub, cut in back hard every other spring to enjoy extra strong
blooms. To culture this plant as a small tree cut it back hard in the spring.
When the plant begins to grow, select out one stem to form the trunk, removing
all other stems. Stake this stem and remove any side branching except at the
very top of the stem which will form the head of the tree.
Great for the mixed shrub / perennial border adding bold color in late summer. They are easily trimmed to keep in proper proportion. Combine with fall blooming aster and mums.
