10 Seeds Blue Satin Rose of Sharon Hibiscus Syriacus Hardy Flowering Shrub
Blue Satin Rose of Sharon is a hardy deciduous flowering shrub prized for its large, single blooms in a distinctive blue-violet shade with a contrasting deep red center.

This versatile shrub works well as a flowering hedge, border specimen, or focal point in mixed plantings. It tolerates pruning and can be shaped as needed. Seeds are a rewarding way to grow this shrub from scratch and enjoy its summer color year after year.
