Notes
'Paraplu Adorned' rose of sharon (Hibiscus syriacus 'Paraplu Adorned') is a shrub for hedges and pollinator gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to wet soil. It grows fast and has an erect shape, so it fills a hedge line quickly. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit it. It sits low on the menu for deer.
Pairs well with Blueberry, Casa Blanca lily, and Virginia spiderwort.
