Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This fabulous Rose of Sharon creates narrow column 10-16' by 3-4', so it takes up much less space than others. This elegant shrub bears beautiful pure white, semi-double blooms from summer into fall. Its uncommon form allows you to use this plant in so many places; narrow side yards, as a privacy screen, or as a striking specimen. Amazing and very easy-care this shrub is a wonderful addition to any sized garden. S/M/GDr PP28892
A useful column of deciduous foliage that grows 10-16’ tall that stays a mere 2-3’ wide without pruning! Flowers mid-summer to early fall with PURE WHITE semi-double flowers, attracting butterflies and hummers. Perfect for low maintenance hedges, lining an entry, as a formal specimen in a large container (or two in matching pots for symmetry); best in full sun, most soils (clay is ok), will need at least occasional water in dry seasons. Enjoys the coast. Deer resistant. Does not set seed.
