Upright Habit, So Versatile!

No room for a traditional Hibiscus? This statuesque beauty with its super-narrow upright habit, just 2-3’ wide, has unlimited landscape potential – tall narrow hedges, screens, entry ways, formal gardens or simply a quirky accent. Jam-packed throughout the summer with semi-double lavender flowers with a red eye. No need to prune unless a controlled height is desired. Seeds are sterile, so none of the rampant seeding the older species can exhibit. Award-winning with its columnar habit, Hibiscus Purple Pillar is a bold perennial shrub perfect for adding desirable vertical accent to any garden. Sure to be a conversation piece.

Hibiscus General Information

Hibiscus are very useful for the mid summer to early fall bloom. Tolerant of a wide variety of soils except very wet or very dry sites. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Hibiscus Plant Care

Pruning can be done in late spring. If desired (but usually not necessary) Rose of Sharon can be heavily pruned by removing undesired stems at ground level. Shaping is okay when desired.
