A:  Great question! Roses of Sharon are a hardy hibiscus variety different from the common tropical varieties. Hardy hibiscus like Rose of Sharon are cold-tolerant, perennial shrubs can be just as beautiful as their tropical counterparts, with big showy blooms in a range of colors.

A:  Hi Katt~ Great question! Thanks to their naturally graceful habit, Chiffon roses of Sharon don't require much pruning. If you wish to prune them, however, early spring is the best time to do so. Note that rose of Sharon is quite late to leaf out in spring, so be patient with it. You can train a rose of Sharon hibiscus bush to become a single-stem tree in the winter or early spring with a pruning technique referred to as "limbing up." The limbing-up process takes about three years to accomplish. As always, please feel free to reach out to us at any time with any questions or concerns.
