Red Heart Rose of Sharon

If you are looking for tropical impact and appreciate an easy-care shrub, you'll love Red Heart Hibiscus (Hibiscus syriacus 'Red Heart'). This shrub draws you in and brightens your landscape with an easy elegance that doesn't take itself too seriously.

You'll love the form of this plant. Its got an upright growing habit and develops into a graceful vase-shape with time. Pleaseingly large, single, saucer shaped flowers of pure white with a scarlet center bloom from July until frost.

That's a plant to love! But it's not all...

This xeriscape plant won't require much water after established. It's vigorous and versatile decidious shrub that can be used many ways in the landscape.

Plant several together in a zig zag to create a wide visual screen, or plant one by itself as a specimen in the lawn. Use one as a foundation plant at the corner of your front yard landscape to instantly ground your house without any hassle, muss or fuss.

Place several in loose groupings to anchor a low-maintenance shrub border. Red Heart Hibiscus can also be used as a fast-growing hedge or screen along the edge of a property or along a patio.

Pick up on the scarlet red flower center with smaller red-flowering shrubs such as Red Prince Weigela, or Grateful Red Hydrangea. Buy dark red glazed containers and pair it with fun seasonal "Thrillers" like Crocosmia, or Canna or Elephant Ear bulbs. It will look fabulous near brick patio, or stamped decorative concrete.

It has no serious insect or disease problems. Annual pruning back will result in increased shoot vigor and larger flowers. It is adaptable to a wide range of soil conditions and tolerant of full sun to partial shade.
