Comments: Remarkable frost and pollution tolerant. Will tolerate light shade, but will not flower as well. An outstanding triploid introduced by Don Shadow. First Choice Award '97. The inside of the flowers look almost like an old fashioned carnation set inside the large outer petals. Unique, huge, clear-colored flowers with overlapping petals are produced continually throughout the summer and fall with no lapse. The foliage shows none of the yellowing in mid-summer that is typical of diploid Hibiscus. The lustrous dark-green leaves remain on the plant well into fall. This variety is also noted for its ease of culture, reliability and for the uniquely formed flowers. An all around winner of great beauty and distinction. It may be pruned up to make a small tree. Thrives in heat, humidity, drought and poor soils. Shipping: View Shipping Schedule Freedom Rose-of-Sharon Ships In The Fall Unable to ship to: AE AK BC GU HI PR
