Why Pink Rose of Sharon Althea Trees?

Famous for its long blooming season, the Pink Rose of Sharon Althea Tree. You will get bright pink, tropical flowers for months. In fact, the showy flowers are breathtakingly deep pink. You can expect a flurry of large flowers from early summer to early fall...a time when other plants in your garden are going dormant.

And it attracts both hummingbirds and butterflies. A low-maintenance tree, the Pink Rose of Sharon tree is pest resistant and requires minimal watering. You can even pot it on your patio as a unique and colorful way to add character. Landscapers recommend planting in groups of three for the most dramatic effect.

Planting & Care

1. Planting: First, select an area with well-drained soil and full to partial sun (4 to 8 hours of sunlight per day). When you're ready to plant, dig a hole that's twice the width of your plant's root ball and just as deep. Then, place your shrub, backfill the soil and water to settle the roots. Finally, mulch the surrounding soil to conserve moisture.

2. Watering: Water your Althea Tree once or twice weekly in order to conserve soil moisture. If you're not sure when to water your shrub, check the soil with your index finger, about 3 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it's time to water.

3. Fertilizing: Fertilize before new growth begins in the spring with a well-balanced blend, such as 10-10-10.

4. Pruning: Prune your Rose of Sharon in the winter, after flowering, in order to shape your shrub.

Perfect Match Pink Althea

First time buyer, was a bit leery to order a tree from an online company but I could not be happier I did! I was unable to find a match color wise locally and let me tell you - I am very pleased with my purchase and so happy to see that upon arrival it had blooms that opened within less than 1 week! While not as big as it's match (planted 8/2025), I feel confident this is a healthy tree unlike the one prior (purchased from a local nursery) I also purchased a rose bush; yet to see blooms but it'll happen :-)

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Jamie, we love that this tree filled the color gap you could not find locally. May it continue thriving beside its larger match and become just as beautiful with time!

Raves for my Rose of Sharon

This may have been the easiest addition to my garden all year. Planted it in a sunny spot against my retaining wall and then watched it grow (I think it’s at least 4. 5 feet or more in one summer) and then saw lovely white blooms starting in early July. It’s still going strong.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Sharon, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your Rose of Sharon Althea Tree has been such an easy, reward-filled addition to your garden!

Arrived in excellent condition

Tree arrived in great shape. My plan is to airlayer the trunk as it is quite long, and turn it into a beautiful flowering bonsai.
