Very happy with the shrub

The rose of Althea is really leafed out and healthy. I’m very happy with it.

Hope springs eternal

Purchased 4 of the 1 quart size and they arrived dormant. So at the moment it's kind of hard to provide a review, but they were packaged well and I believe they will respond with new growth soon. They were part of a large order of other plants that were all alive and thriving, so confidence is high.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Michael, we appreciate you sharing your experience. It’s great to hear your plants arrived safely and that you’re seeing good results with the rest of your order. Dormancy is a natural part of the process, and you can expect new growth as the season progresses. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions along the way.

Deer

Here in Pennsylvania, these plants are Not deer resistant. Had 2 of them chewed off to the ground. Great and hardy plants when planted

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Doug, thank you for sharing your experience. While Red Pillar Rose of Sharon is often considered deer resistant, deer can become persistent when food sources are limited. We are sorry to hear about the damage. Adding a physical barrier like fencing can be one of the most effective solutions. If you would like more protection tips, please do not hesitate to reach out.
