Red Pillar® Rose of Sharon 1 Live Shrub, 3 Gallon Pot, 18 Inches – Hibiscus syriacus

Red Pillar® Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus Red Pillar®) is a deciduous flowering shrub valued for its narrow, upright growth habit and attractive summer blossoms. Unlike traditional broadly spreading Rose of Sharon varieties, Red Pillar® develops a naturally columnar form that provides vertical interest without requiring extensive horizontal planting space. Its distinctive structure makes it suitable for narrow garden beds, flowering screens, property borders, foundation plantings, and ornamental landscapes.

During summer and into early autumn, Red Pillar® Rose of Sharon produces abundant white to pale pink hibiscus-like flowers with prominent deep red centers. The blossoms create a striking contrast against the plant's medium-green foliage and provide color during the warmest part of the growing season. Flowers may attract bees, butterflies, and other visiting pollinators. Its upright branches and repeated seasonal flowering make it a useful addition to sunny mixed borders and decorative landscape plantings.

Red Pillar® Rose of Sharon performs best in full sun and well-drained garden soil. It prefers moderate watering during establishment and can tolerate occasional dry periods once established. Its narrow, columnar habit makes it particularly useful where a flowering shrub is desired in a relatively confined planting area.

Each order includes 1 live Red Pillar® Rose of Sharon supplied in a 3-gallon nursery pot (G3).
