    A shrub for all gardens, the wonderful, fully-double blue flowers bloom from summer into fall on an 8-12' shrub that is sterile, heat, drought and salt-tolerant. It also brings in the hummingbirds and butterflies; a real gem as a specimen and a total knock out as a hedge! S/M USPP 20574

    The cool blue, frilly double flowers of Blue Chiffon™ Althea are sure to make summer feel like spring again with its large flowers that are born in abundance on a vigorous and easy to grow upright to vase-shaped deciduous shrub. Altheas need little maintenance once established. Prune to shape as desired in late winter and you can train them into tree standards, hedges, or allow them to become specimens.
