Description
Perfect for small gardens and patios, Pollypetite® Rose of Sharon is a compact, nearly seedless shrub that delivers months of beautiful lavender-pink blooms from mid-summer through early fall. Showy lilac-purple flowers cover the rounded plant, standing out against attractive blue-green foliage. Growing just 4 feet tall and wide, this dwarf variety is an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, mass plantings, containers, or low flowering hedges. Its long bloom season also attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden.

Hardy in Zones 5 to 8, this adaptable shrub tolerates urban conditions and is easy to grow in both landscapes and large patio containers.
