Columns of Long-Lasting Purple Blooms 

The Purple Pillar® Rose of Sharon is a magnificent addition to any garden or landscape. Renowned for its striking vertical growth and stunning floral display, this exceptional, space-saving cultivar delivers beauty to outdoor spaces.

Boasting a unique upright stature, the 'Purple Pillar®' stands tall, reaching heights of up to 15 feet while maintaining a slender, columnar form. Its dense foliage of deep green leaves provides a lush backdrop for the star of the show—lavish, purple blossoms. In mid to late summer, clusters of large, vibrant purple flowers adorn the branches, creating a spectacle of color and charm. These blossoms attract pollinators such as butterflies and hummingbirds, enhancing the biodiversity of your garden.

The 'Purple Pillar®' is also a low-maintenance and adaptable plant. This hardy shrub is disease-resistant, cold-hardy, and drought-tolerant once established, making it a resilient choice for various climates. Plus, you can expect your 'Purple Pillar®' to produce heavy blooms throughout a long blooming period of summer through fall.

Ideal for use as a focal point in landscapes, the 'Purple Pillar®' can also be incorporated into narrow hedges, screens, formal gardens, entryways, and decorative containers. Its vertical growth habit makes it a space-saving option for urban gardens or smaller areas where traditional shrubs may not fit. Add a touch of elegance and a pop of stunning purple to your garden with the Purple Pillar® Rose of Sharon today!

Pretty, healthy little rose of sharon

These came in very healthy, and they are loving being in the ground. I have high hopes for them. We were hit with a tornado watch / warning with winds their first week, and the shrubs came out totally unbothered. Very hardy indeed!

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertWe’re pleased to know your Rose of Sharon plants are loving their new home in the ground. They sound hardy already. We hope they continue growing beautifully for you!
