This purple-flowering selection produces single blooms with prominent stamens from midsummer into early autumn, extending color into the garden when many other shrubs have finished. Supplied as bare root starter plants, they establish readily and grow into reliable, long-lived shrubs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese versatile shrubs work beautifully as flowering hedges, mixed border anchors, or standalone specimen plants in perennial gardens and cottage-style landscapes. The blooms attract pollinators, and the foliage remains a clean green backdrop through the season before turning yellow in autumn. Space plants to allow good air movement, water consistently during establishment, and prune in late winter or early spring to encourage vigorous new growth and heavy flowering.\u003cbr\u003e\nSpecies: Hibiscus syriacus\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Purple\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Deciduous flowering shrub\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright, vase-shaped\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Well-drained, average fertility\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 5-9\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 6-8 feet apart\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Blooms midsummer to early autumn; prune in late winter or early spring\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664689856648,"sku":"BTR-312","price":63.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_952a8337-7239-48d4-8de8-4776cee7c4e8.png?v=1791897609","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/3-purple-rose-of-sharon-starter-plants-althea-hibiscus-bare-root","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
