Bring your fantasy Hawaiian vacation to life! Paraplu Pink Ink® Rose of Sharon’s blooms can transform your backyard into a beautiful Hawaiian retreat. Also known as Hibiscus syriacus, this flowering deciduous shrub is the perfect sized flowering hedge, reaching 8 feet tall and 5 feet wide. Its dark green foliage is enveloped by glorious palm-sized white flowers. The blooms have a spectacular blazing pink star center, surrounded by brilliantly bright white petals. Even hummingbirds can’t resist its beautiful allure.
Paraplu Pink Ink® Rose of Sharon is not only beautiful but adaptable. Instead of decorating your patio with Tropical Hibiscus, why not invest in a tough perennial that will reliably bloom year after year? Native to Asia, these plants are hardy to zones 9 through 5 and can survive winter temperatures up to −15 °F. This Rose of Sharon can be used in so many applications like screening a neighbor’s junkyard or creating a thrilling focal point in a container. Just plant it anywhere and you can’t go wrong!
Paraplu Pink Ink® Rose of Sharon Care
Relax and celebrate Summer. This is one of those hard-working shrubs that thrive on neglect. Full sun will maximize blooms, but be sure that it is receiving at least 6 hours of sunlight daily. This plant thrives in moist, well-draining average soil, so avoid areas that tend to exhibit extremes of drought or wetness. An annual top dressing of compost or mulch is all the fertilizing that is needed.
Rose of Sharon can be trimmed into a more formal or informal shape. Technically little or no trimming is needed, but it is important to note that blooms are formed on the new year’s growth. If you do decide to trim, just make sure to prune in early spring (before growth begins) and only cut back 2 to 3 buds to ensure that this year’s blooms are not affected. Heavy pruning is not recommended.
Paraplu Pink Ink® Rose of Sharon Spacing
Give plants room to grow and allow 4 to 5 feet apart when spacing these plants in the landscape. To create an informal hedge, plant shrubs in wavy lines, or for a more formal hedge, plant shrubs in straight lines. Hedges or screenings can be a monoculture, but diversifying a hedge with 3 to 4 different varieties will make for the best success.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
