Rose of sharon is a deciduous flowering shrub, I have these growing in front of my house. This is the
first year that the flower has been white, usually they bloom as purple. The
flower comes back every year all you have to do is prune them once a
year.
Generally speaking, rose of sharon bushes can get
8'-10' tall and have a spread of 4'-6'. However, some cultivars
stay shorter (e.g., Hibiscus
syriacus 'Minerva' reaches only 5'-8'). Blooms on rose of sharon can be
white,
red,
lavender or
light blue; some have double blooms. Most rose of
sharon bushes bear small, deeply-lobed, light-green leaves (this trait may vary
according to cultivar).
