Description
Create a garden focal point with the striking Red Heart Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus 'Red Heart'), a showy deciduous shrub known for its bold, white trumpet-shaped blooms. Each flower is accented with a vivid ruby-red center that draws the eye and attracts pollinators like butterflies and hummingbirds. Blooming continuously from midsummer to early fall, this variety brings a long-lasting splash of color just when many other plants are fading.
With an upright, spreading habit and green lobed foliage, Red Heart Rose of Sharon is ideal as a specimen plant, in mixed shrub borders, or for creating privacy screens. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers deep weekly watering in well-draining soil. Though it requires regular maintenance, its striking floral display and deer resistance make it a rewarding choice for any sunny landscape.
Each plant comes in a #3 (3 gallon) growers container. The image shown represents an example of what you may receive. Please note that the height, shape, and fullness of each plant may vary due to natural growth patterns. Rest assured, we will select the healthiest and most vibrant plant for you.
