Hibiscus
Rose-of-Sharon deserves more attention for its abundant flowering in mid summer. It comes from eastern Asia and is absolutely frost hardy. There have been a number of cultivars available since its discovery, they vary by bloom colours, shapes and sizes, they even have varigated foliage.Description of the plant:
Totus Albus is a very elegant variety that bears large, 7-9 cm across, flowers of pure white colour, sometimes with dwarf lacy petals in the center. They come out reliably every year in July and don’t stop blooming until all buds have gone - sometimes by end September. Pruning is not needed. But if you clip max. one third of last year’s growth it will result in larger flower sizes. Hibiscus needs a sunny location and though it can withstand temporary droughts it is advisable to keep the soil moist for good foliage. Dislikes wet places where the roots may rot. Fully hardy.QUICK PRICE OVERVIEW
