Red Pillar™ Rose of Sharon is the perfect, blooming shrub for even the smallest of gardens. The tall, narrow growth habit is naturally compact and requires little maintenance during the growing season. The large HIbiscus flowers are bicolored in deep pink and red, blooming nonstop through the summer. Rose of Sharon is scientifically known as Hibiscus syriacus and is the hardy cousin of true tropical shrubs, growing in USDA zones 5 to 9. 

Red Pillar™ can be easily grown in the ground as an informal flowering hedge or specimen shrub, or grown in containers to decorate a patio, deck, or poolside. This easygoing deciduous shrub requires little maintenance and is easy enough for even the most inexperienced gardener.  It tolerates deer browsing, periods of drought, heat, humidity, and salt spray. 

Red Pillar™ Rose of Sharon Care

Rose of Sharon can handle just about any soil texture and pH level. This shrub is even tolerant of highly alkaline soils. Full to partial sun is necessary for good flowering and deep green foliage. The soil needs to be both well draining and evenly moist for vigorous growth. Fertilizing is best done once a year in the beginning of the growing season with a slow-release, complete, balanced feed. Water the shrubs well for the first year. After establishing, supplemental watering is only needed during dry or hot periods.

Rose of Sharon blooms on the current year's growth and can be pruned early in the spring before buds form. Prune out any dead or damaged branches from the winter to shape the shrubs. Remove any sucker growth from the base of the shrub. Deadheading Red Pillar™ is not necessary because the flowers are sterile. Rejuvenation pruning can be done on Rose of Sharon to control the height or encourage more dense growth lower on the plant. Cut the overall size of the shrub back by half early in the spring after all danger of a late frost has passed.

Red Pillar™ Rose of Sharon Spacing

The mature height of Red Pillar™ is a towering 10-16 feet with a narrow spread of 3 feet. Space each shrub 3 feet apart when using multiple plants for hedging. Container-grown Rose of Sharon will require a wide, deep pot at least 14 inches in diameter.

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.

Guarantee and Warranty

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.
