Surround yourself with the soft colors of an exotic sunset. This lovely, trouble-free Rose of Sharon is as beautiful as its name suggests, bursting forth in midsummer with pink, semi-double flowers. The buds are medium pink but fade to a softer hue once open, while a deep reddish-purple center adds dramatic highlights. The medium to dark green foliage acts as a lovely backdrop to the stunning flowers. With an upright, spreading, very dense habit that reaches 5 to 8 feet high and 4 to 7 feet wide, it will create an absolutely unforgettable hedge, screen, or back-of-the-border standout.
