Ardens Rose of Sharon 1 Live Shrub, 3 Gallon – Hibiscus syriacus ‘Ardens’

Ardens Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus ‘Ardens’) is a deciduous flowering shrub admired for its elegant, double mauve-purple blossoms and attractive upright growth habit. Its densely layered petals create a full, ruffled flower appearance, bringing soft purple color and ornamental texture to sunny landscapes, flowering borders, and mixed shrub gardens.

Known as an early-blooming selection of Rose of Sharon, ‘Ardens’ produces showy flowers during the summer flowering season, with blooms continuing into early fall under favorable conditions. Its green, lobed foliage provides an attractive backdrop for the double flowers. This hardy shrub performs best in full sun to partial shade and adapts to a variety of well-drained soils. Its upright, bushy form makes it suitable for specimen plantings, flowering hedges, cottage gardens, and ornamental landscape borders.

Each order includes 1 live Ardens Rose of Sharon shrub supplied in a 3-gallon nursery container. The plant is approximately 18 inches tall at the time of shipping. As a deciduous shrub, it naturally loses its leaves during fall and enters winter dormancy. Depending on the season, plants may arrive leafless, recently pruned, or without flowers.
