HIBISCUS syriacus BLUE SATIN - Rose of Sharon - Tall 8-12' - Plant 5' apart zone 5-9. Always a favorite. Not a prolific self seeder. What a show! Royal blue single flowered, strong grower. HIBSP

General Information
Very useful for the late summer to early fall bloom. It is slow to begin growing in the spring but makes up for lost time fast. Hibiscus has been popular for nearly 200 years and with good reason. Its size and growth habit allow it to be planted near a home or in a border, and its flowers are spectacular.

Plant Care
Deer resistant. If any winter damage occurs while it is getting established just prune back to good wood. Not a prolific self seeder.
