    The only known dwarf Althea or Rose of Sharon which produces white blooms with a dark maroon eye which last for up to 3 days instead of just one! A great addition to the garden world. The propagation of, and/or the sale of plant parts is prohibited without a license.The Rose of Sharon or Althea is an easily grown deciduous shrub that was a common pass along plant. This durable shrub is tolerant of a wide variety of soil types, is moderately drought tolerant once well established (though it will flower more with adequate moisture), and will provide many years of enjoyment with its procession of summer flowers.
