Red Heart Rose of Sharon Std

A deciduous flowering tree trained into a classic standard or “lollipop” form, with a single upright trunk supporting a rounded canopy. From mid- to late summer, the large white flowers with vivid deep red centers appear abundantly along the canopy, creating a dramatic focal point for patios, courtyards, or formal garden beds. The glossy green foliage adds ornamental interest even when the plant is not in bloom, while the striking flowers attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

This grafted standard hibiscus is valued for its architectural form, long-lasting summer blooms, and versatility in small or formal landscapes. Unlike multi-stemmed shrubs, it has a clear, elevated trunk that creates a distinct miniature tree shape. It grows best in full sun and prefers well-drained soil. Once established, it is moderately tolerant of heat, wind, and urban conditions. Minimal maintenance is needed, with light pruning in early spring to maintain the canopy shape and encourage vigorous flowering.
