Flowering Shrubs
White Pillar® Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) naturally grows in a narrow, upright form, reaching impressive heights of up to 16 feet while maintaining a width of just 2-3 feet. This unique growth habit makes it an excellent choice for lining alongside walls or as a flowering privacy hedge! Hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies can’t stay away from the large open flowers filled with nectar and pollen.
White Pillar® is also a powerful bloomer. Starting to show off crisp white semi-double blooms in midsummer that last through fall, White Pillar® erupts in a dazzling display of pure white semi-double blooms. These captivating flowers cascade down the tall stems, creating a mesmerizing waterfall of blooms. Deer tend to avoid Rose of Sharon, leaving you free to enjoy its beauty worry-free. Its remarkable drought tolerance makes it a perfect choice for hot, dry climates.
