Hibiscus syriacus 'Lavender Chiffon'

 

Rose of Sharon 'Lavender Chiffon'

Hibiscus syriacus - Rose of Sharon - is a very hardy, medium to large shrub. It blooms quite late in the season - from mid to late Summer into Autumn, usually. The 'Chiffon' series are compact and upright shrubs with double-flowered blooms with petals that look as though they are made from chiffon.'Lavender Chiffon' flowers are a beautiful shade of lavender, but the base of each petal has a deep maroon blotch, which gives the overall colouring a bit of depth.
