It has bloomed a few
It has bloomed a few times since I planted in the heat of the summer. It looks great with green leaves and I am hopeful it will grow to match the other Rose of Sharon I have had for years.
Perfect bush
This bush arrived timely and in good condition. I planted it after it sat outside for the recommended 2-3 days and it has done great. Now is the blooming season and it is producing big beautiful flowers all over and has grown a couple of inches as well. We are going to be moving soon and I will definetly be buying more for the new house.
Great plant
It showed up looking a little ragged and I was nervous, but I got it planted and within a week it perked right back up and now a few months later it is already thriving and has grown several inches which I was not expecting for the first year. This plant just wants to grow and doesn't care that it's in the hot sun with terrible soil conditions.
They are thriving
The arrived deliciously alive and they acclimated to the Nebraska soil (with a little extra TLC added to the clay). I was overjoyed with the first bloom and there are now several buds waiting for the right moment to display their beauty.
Gorgeous flowers
The plant is doing great! The flowers are such a gorgeous color.
