Description
Hibiscus syriacus ‘Ardens’, also known as Althea or Rose-of-Sharon, produces loads of ruffled, rose-purple flowers all summer. ‘Ardens’ is adaptable to a variety of conditions and will even bloom in partial shade. With nice green foliage, an upright vase shape, and multiple stems growing 8-12’ tall, ‘Ardens’ is a good choice for creating privacy hedges or for dotting around the landscape for reliable blooms later in the season.
