Purple Pillar Hibiscus – 4″ pot – Rose of Sharon – Proven Winners 840344207914 Light: Sun Hirt’s Gardens Garden & Patio You’ve never seen a rose of Sharon like this before! Think Supermodel. You know what I mean. Tall, thin and beautiful. Purple Pillar rose of Sharon is a new Hibiscus syriacus with a uniquely fastigiate habit. Think of it like a Fine Line Rhamnus with pretty purple flowers. Purple Pillar is a totally unique rose of Sharon: it naturally grows as a narrow column instead of a wide, spreading plant. It gets to be just 2-3′ (.6-.9 m) wide and 10-16′ tall! Think of what you could do with that: screens, hedges, patio containers. Anywhere you need a little privacy and/or color in a narrow space, this plant is a great choice. Like most all hibiscus, it will do best in full sun. Zone 5. In summer, each stem is packed along its entire length with purple blooms. This unusual columnar habit makes it a real space saver – if you thought you didn’t have enough space to grow rose of Sharon, Purple Pillar is perfect for you. Try it in containers, or flanking your front door, or simply as a quirky accent in your landscape. Fun Facts: The flowers on Purple Pillar rose of Sharon are semi-double, which means that they have two or more layers of petals, but that the stamens and pistil are still visible in the center.
