Ardens Rose of Sharon
Hibiscus syriacus
The Ardens Rose of Sharon Bushes are valued for its large double, rose purple flowers containing a maroon blotch that blooms mid to late summer when few other flowering shrubs are in bloom. Hibiscus syriacus also known as swamp mallow, rose mallow, althea or Rose of Sharon. Ardens Hibiscus Shrubs grow in full sun or partial shade and in any soil. The growth rate of these pink rose of sharon bushes ranges from slow to moderate and transplanting is easy.
Peak blooming of the Hardy Hibiscus Ardens Flowering Shrub takes place in August.
Prune rose of sharon in late winter or early spring. Frequent severe pruning gives fewer but larger flowers; no or little pruning gives many small flowers.
Growing Zone 5-8

Info
We ship in small containers, about 18oz plastic cups. This helps greatly to almost eliminate transplant shock. Many species of trees do not have a good survival rate when transplanted bare-root. This also allows you to plant your trees faster. These trees have been acclimated to the hot sun, but shouldn't be placed immediately into the sun again when received. Just slide out of container or cut container and plant. Make sure to water 2-3 times a week for the first year or so.
